Re: problem with hard drive

NTLDR stands for NT Loader - if you really formatted the drive there would
be nothing on it to load so you must have really screwed things up.

Go to the WD web site, www.wd.com and download their various programs for
setting up and/or diagnosing problems on their hard drives.

Also, if you have a floppy drive and access to a boot floppy with Windows
98SE or ME you could boot from the floppy and then try to run FDISK and then
format the drive. www.bootdisk.com will have these files/programs

I have a western digital hard drive, it was working fine but I tried to
format it with wrong cd (media experience 3.1) and now it wont load the
OS,
it gives me the following error: NTLDR is missing, that after I formatted
and
created the partition for the OS with the WD cd, any suggestions? Thanks
