That's weird, man.

NTLDR is the Windows boot loader which means that either something overwrote it or there's a hardware problem. You might want to run a scandisk to see if anything crops up. (Doubtful, though, 'cause surface scans are analogous to brushing feathers over a minefield and hoping you find something.)

Open Windows Explorer (Winkey + E is the fastest way), right-click your C: drive, click "properties," click the "tools" tab and there should be an option for "error checking" or some such. It'll take a while, but you'll know if there's any immediate problems.

I'm curious, when did this problem start?

It might be pointing to the wrong disk? Or a corrupted NTLDR? Me dunno, but that's one hell of a problem.

If you had a burner, I'd imagine you could grab an ISO of XP (although, I think the product IDs have to match) so long as you have a license.

I'm not an MSDN subscriber, so I don't have any spare actual licenses.

You can find an ISO almost anywhere. I won't advocate on this site how to go about getting XP, but I'm sure a few google searches could help you out ;) [/url]
