I first reported here 2 days ago that I had installed a new HD and wanted
that drive to be the boot drive. I used XXClone to copy my old drive over to
the new drive, but when I attempted to boot from the new drive I was given
the error
message:
"NTLDR is missing, press control-alt-del"
I tried this fix which was recommended here:
Didn't work, so I tried to reinstall XP to the new drive and got this message:
"Setup failed to install the product Catalog, this is a fatal error"
Great, so now what can I do? Is there no way to make this new HD my boot
drive? Am I stuck using my old drive until I purchase a new PC?
Help!

I tried this fix which was recommended here:
COPY D:\i386\ntldr C:\
COPY D:\i386\ntdetect C:\
(a file that may also be missing)
then rebuild the boot configuration boot.ini file by
Attrib -H -R -S C:\boot.ini
(if not found skip the next line)
DEL C:\boot.ini
BootCfg /Rebuild
