Missing - NTLDR

[swinnie]

Hi

I recently copied the hard drive of a computer I am making a server. And when I Loaded the hard drive that the data was copied to the it came up with the error:

NTLDR Missing

I have tried inserting the XP Setup disk and doing the following:

Entering repair install
logging into installation
copying the following files with command line 'copy' function:

d:\i386\ntldr c:\
d:\i386\ntdetect.com c:\

Is there another way of fixing this. Would fixboot erase the data or would it just do the boot sector?

Thanks.

I tried what you said and it didnt work. So I think I will run Linux...much easier!
