Having trouble rebooting the PC

For the past two days, I've been trying to get my PC out of BIOS mode and
onto Windows XP Professional, but every time I do, I get a message that says
'NTLDR is missing
Press CTRL+ALT+DEL to restart.' I haven't had the chance to obtain the
Bcupdate2 utility before this unexpected event happend.

My other option was to reboot WinXP, but I've lost the discs recently.

Please help me.

Hi Salior,
The NTLDR is missing or corrupted try to bring a friend XP CD the same as
your Operating system version and start your computer with the CD and copy
the NTLDR and see if the boot.ini is okay or you can rebuild it.
Read this article on how:

If you don't have a CD or a friend close to you then download the BootDisk
from here and unzipt it to make a boodisk on a floppy or CD/DVD:

or here http://www.bootdisk.com
HTH.
Let us know.

If oyu have a floppy in the drive...remove it.

If that's not the case...you will need to find your XP cd

boot from it and from the repair console issue the command: fixboot
 
If I did have my XP cd with me, then I would've used it by now.
Unfortunitly(sp), it got lost and i cannot find it.

And i still cannot get back to Windows.
