Hi

Try this:

Boot with your XP CD in the cd drive. Select 'To repair..' by pressing 'R'.
When in the Recovery Console type the following:

"copy X:\i386\ntldr C:\" - without the quotes.

Where X is the letter of your CD drive and C is the letter of your system
drive. Take the XP CD out of the cd drive and reboot into XP normally.

Am experiencing the same problem with XP Home. Celeron D 2.66 /S478 Gigabyte
661 FXM uATX motherboard.
Will the rebooting with the CD "repair" function work here too?
Thanks, Jules.

Have just tried rebooting with CD but no response.
Any other possibilities? Jules.
