Solve : No OS present Load NTLDR files.? |
|
Answer» I have formatted my drive with Darik Boot & Nuke. I have inserted a floppy With NTLDR softwear on it.First of all, we can't tell you because we have no idea what kind of floppy you're using. Second of all this isn't what you should be doing. The NTLDR will be installed by the XP setup. Without an operating system to load there is no point in installing the NT boot loader. So you need to get XP installed and we need to find out why you can't boot the XP install disc. It is not caused by a problem with you hard drive. You can boot the XP disc even without a hard drive installed. Have you been able to boot to the XP disc in the past? have you checked the boot order in the BIOS? Is it a genuine XP disc and is it scratch and SMUDGE free?Floppy 3 1/2 1.44MB I have been able to boot with this disc in the past . If I place either disc into a nother PC with windowes xp pro, they will boot up. Have checked boot order in bios. I have 2 disc 1 xp Home Genuine 1 XP pro Coppied They are clean disc I have TRIED both.I've READ this and your other thread on this issue...you are going to need a genuine Windows XP CD to get this running. It is not the fault of the machine that those CD's won't boot and run setup...I had 2 DVD burners and I have disconnected one . I have run Dariks Boot and nuke again. Then I placed the Genuine XP home into the PC and started the PC up and now I get a error Code 5 I read the info about the code 5 but I do not under stand what this means . Could you explain to me what it means and how to fix This issue. What is a f Disc used for. Where are you GETTING an error code 5? What is giving you an error code 5? Have you gotten the XP cd to boot?I have got the CD to boot in other PC but not this one. I have run a dos command A:\dir Looking for Dir *EXE files Not present. Then typed the next Comand. A:\ C: Outcome below. No boot Path Dos this help you with the problem solving problemNope... no floppy is going to help you if the CD doesn't work in the computer. Do you have another cd/dvd drive that you can try in the computer?I am curious.Do you have the XP boot disk set for Windows XP ? --->GOHEREI have downloaded the XP Boot disk from that sight . XP Pro. And when I use the disk's I can only get to the area where It asks for the system disk.I place the system disk in but It will not boot off.Thank You For all your help as I have fixed the problem which turned out to be a damaged HD ribbon and 1 faulty ram stick and at the same time I had formatted the HD . I would say the Ribbon caused a intermittent fault which led me to believe I had a virus caused the PC this caused freezing could not access some functions. I hope I haven't inconvenience any body. With your input I have learnt allot. GregThank you for posting back the solution Greg. Robert |
