NTLDR is missing screen comes up every single time I restart my computer. I
have to manually shut off computer and turn it back on again to load Windows
MCE2005.
It occured since day one of buying computer. But now I have added an older
40gig HD and during bootup I see a screen for three seconds with options to
boot into Windows or Recovery. Any suggestions?
I have checked BIOS and it recogonizes both hard drives no problem.
Thanks
