If it does, great. If this is the case, just unplug all your removable drives from your computer. After that, on your keyboard, hold down the Ctrl and Alt keys, then press the Del key to restart your computer. Do you see the normal Windows system now?
Usually Yes is selected by default. Your computer would then reboot, see if it goes successfully. You can fix different Windows startup problems through performing Startup Repair on your computer, this ntldr missing problem is no exception.
If you encounter the problem on your Windows 10 computer, then you need to prepare a Windows 10 installation disc.
You can download the Windows 10 ISO file from the official Microsoft website to create the disc on a working computer. See if your Windows 10 computer boots normally.
Follow the method below to rebuild the MBR of your hard disk. Note: Before we start, a Windows installation disc is required. Type the following commands and press Enter after each to rebuild the MBR:. If you back up system is Linux or any other alternative operating system, then use the fixntldrimg. You'll need a program like rawrite. You may also be able to do that linux command line in a Mac.
But if you have an easy way to make a boot floppy on a Mac I don't know about, please let me know milescomer gmail. If you give me a solution. If none of these options work for you, check out the What if I don't want to download a file from a website I don't trust?
If you named your windows directory something like "shinyhappypeople" then open the boot. Save changes, and put the disk back in and continue on trying the 10 choices. If you do not see the screen come up with the different selections and immediately goes back to the "NTLDR is missing, press any key to restart" error, then you will need to change the "boot order" in your systems BIOS to first select the Floppy Drive sometimes called "Removable Media Drive" before it tries to boot to the Hard Disk sometimes called "Fixed Disk" drive.
Once there, try looking for a "Boot Order" screen that will list your floppy, cd-rom, and hard drives with a number, typically , look for instructions on the screen on how to make changes, and move your floppy to 1 and CD-ROM to 2, find a way to exit and be sure to save your changes. Then we know that the programs are fine, and the 3 startup files are fine, but perhaps the MBR is incorrect.
Correcting the MBR takes a few different directions, choose any of the following sections:. Performing a "Repair" installation of windows. You can choose to repair a windows installation from the recovery console. Once you are logged in to your recovery console, select the number that represent your C: drive more than likely it will be 1. It will ask for your admin password, enter it you have one or just hit enter if you don't know it.
Follow the recovery console instructions from here:. If neither of those options worked, try checking your hardware, replace cables, try different power cable, ensure jumpers are on properly, ensure that the drive you want to boot from is on the Primary IDE connection IDE 0 and is set as the first device on the IDE cable Master.
At best your data is still intact, so you can put the drive in another computer and back it up. Once back into Windows, right click on the My Computer option, choose the Manage option. The Computer Management window will open, click on "Disk Management" on the left pane. One of the disks it lists, and one of the drives on it, will need to be marked as active.
It will be which drive letter you have placed the 3 boot files into this will likely be the C: drive on Disk 0. Right click on that drive letter and select "Mark Partition as Active". Close and reboot. If that doesn't work, go into "My Computer", right-click each hard drive, select "Properties", switch to the "Tools" tab, click the "Check Now" button, check both options then click "Start"; if you selected the system partition it will require it to be rebooted and done outside of Windows.
When you reboot you will see a message about "Disk checking will begin in 7 seconds", let it do this and don't skip it. It may take awhile and will boot back into Windows when it's done. If that doesn't immediately work, and you have more hard drives than just C:, try placing the 3 boot files into other drives like D:, E:, F:, etc. Reboot each time to check if that was the one that fixed it, and when you find the correct one, mark it as active. If so, try the below recommendations.
If you are attempting to add a new hard drive to the computer, make sure the drive is a blank drive. If you are unsure if the new drive is blank, try booting from a bootable diskette and format the new hard drive. Your computer's hard drive may have a corrupt boot sector or master boot record. These can be repaired through the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console by running the fixboot and fixmbr commands. If, after trying the above recommendations you continue to receive the NTLDR error, there may be a more serious corruption issue in Microsoft Windows.
Therefore, we would recommend reinstalling Microsoft Windows. If you are encountering this issue during your setup, you may want to completely erase your computer hard drive and all its existing data and reinstall Microsoft Windows. Disconnect and reconnect the cable, making sure that the connection is snug and secure.
If none of the above suggestions resolve the issue, there's a strong possibility the hard drive is bad and needs to be replaced.
