Installing XP NTLDR error

[Pathik]

From where did you get vista and will it work on a machine which has p3 500mhz, 384mb ram and 50 gb hdd(10+40)?

forget vista.... its a miracle if even xp works in ur pc...

i found both files there (ntldr & ntdetect.com)

so guys give the "command" that i've to type to copy this

is this correct

copy D:\i386\ntldr c:\

copy D:\i386\ntdetect.com c:\


& will it work, i mean i'll be copying this frm the HDD itself.

i also have a floppy drive, can it be used for this purpose?

Are you doing it now or tomorrow?

i'll hav to delete/format this C: drive (vista), & install XP on it, so 2day afternoon.

i've 4 primary partitions, so i cant create more to install XP with Vista

it could not get any WORSE than this sh1t

well as i pointed out, that cause for the NTLDR error could be the Recovery Partition, i was Correct, i deleted that partition & everything installed smoothly.

currently i've installed XP Pro. (not SP2).

none of the drivers are installing, except Display Driver & Intel LAN Pro, which i had to install MANUALLY

all other driver (thru CD) are returning that this system is not Supported (i bought Intel DG965WH m/b).

is it b'coz this XP Pro is NOT SP2.

i tried AutoPatcher, but even after installation/updating (thru Autopatcher) i got an error during installation

even KIS gave that error, that is get SP1 or higher.

Wat should i do now. i dont have AUDIO now
