Removed my HD with Win2k and checked another HD. Then
reconnected my HD with Win2k and now on bootup I get a
message "NTLDR Compressed" and prompts to Ctrl Alt Del to
restart. Continues doing this. Cannot locate recovery
disks.
Any ideas?

Good Day, Dale ...

Did you compress this drive from within another OS? If you did, put it back
into that system and decompress it.

If you did not compress the drive, something is awry with the boot files.
To try and get by this problem ...

1. Boot into recovery console.
2. Rename the NTLDR currently there.
3. Reboot and perform a manual repair (choose all options).
