I recently tried to reformat my harddrive and I put in
the windows cd and it didnt load, a blue screen comes up
and it starts teh setup screen then says loading windows
and then it goes to a dark grey screen and the cdrom
stops spinning. I took the harddrive out and put it in a
different computer and used the same cd to reformat. It
finnally worked but now the drive gives me a NTLDR
missing error. My floppy isnt working correctly and i
cannot use a boot disk to fix this problem. any
suggestions?

You'll probably need to repartition your harddrive. You
Click to expand...
can probably get it free on the "net" from the
manufacturer. It will repartition your HD with one
partition and format it also. Then you can reinstall XP.
