NTLDR missing after full system recovery with xp built

[Swainy]

Please somone help !!! I just recently tried to do a Full system
recovery on
xp.
According to HP i dont need recovery discs as its allready in the
partition memory..
But all i get is a prompt asking me to insert the recovery disc after
about an hour..
so coz i hav’nt got a disk i turned the pc off..
Now all i get is NTLDR MISSING
PRESS CTRL ALT DEL TO RESTART
and this just keeps happening..
any ideas anyone

If there is no recovery disk then one must assume there is a separate
(probably hidden) partition used for that purpose.

Are you following HP's documented recovery procedure? It's possible
that there is a BIOS entry that needs to be changed in order for
recovery to take place. Check your documentation carefully, and if that
fails to produce a fruitful answer I'd contact HP - unless somebody
here has a similar computer and can help.
