im an ediot and erased every file i could before trying to format and
reinstall xp thinking it wouldn't matter. well when i went to go install i
accidentley hit upgrade instead of new and then everything go worst. Lucky i
had the 6 boot disk i could boot it up but when i did and it was setting up
1/4 of the files wouldn't load and i had to skip installing them, then it
froze. re booted again and it restarted and now it says NTLDR is missing hit
ctrl+alt+delete to restart.HELP!!!

Your going to have to do another clean install,if you
ahave a hard time with seeing things you may want to have
someone close by with a steady hand,one wrong click
and...you know what can happen,just go thru the reinstall
steps again,NTLDR if you don't get this right you can
have a computer that locks up in 45 days because of an
improper EULA and that would be a bummer,I suggest going
thru it again,that way your sure it's done properly.Good
Luck

If you have an actual Windows XP installation cd, go
through the setup process again, reformat and install
instead of upgrade.
