So I went on vacation for a week and I get home tonight. I go turn on my computer and right after it checks the CDs to boot I get: "NTLDR is missing Press Ctrl-ALt-Del to reboot".
No one has touched the computer for 7 days so I don't know where this problem is coming from. I did some research and found out it has something to do with the boot sequence. The only thing is that all the websites say it comes from upgrading to XP from Win98 or lower. I installed WinXP Pro from scratch on this computer...
I can try to reinstall WinXp but it says it may remove My Documents and I have a bunch of stuff in there that I need, so I don't know if it is worth the risk.
Any ideas on getting this file back?
Thanks
