installation problem

[Guest]

Trying to install oem win xp home on new hard drive. Disk
won't boot. Says "NTLDR is missing - Press ctrl+alt+delete
to restart" I'm not trying to install over an older os.
This is a new full install on a new hard drive.

Any suggestions? Help please.

Thank you

Sounds like your new hard drive is not partationed and formatted. Also if your new hard drive is a large one 60gigs and above you will need the fdisk for this. Go to www.bootdisk.com and you can obtain it there.
