Hello,
is there any known reason for the "NT loader missing" syndrome? We had
this "problem" with a few XP machines and also a win2k3 server. I
cannot grant the incompetent people handling them didn't screw'em up
(like happily deleting the system folder), but what I'm asking here is
whether any bug has ever been reported that may cause the OS to
suddenly "disappear" after a reboot.
Thank you,

The most common cause of this particular error, since the days of WinNT, has been people trying to boot the computer in question with a non-bootable floopy disk in the drive. Another frequent cause is a corrupted or damaged C:\Boot.ini file.
