Ello there,
First of all, congrats to this forum, I have seen in previous post that the solutions and response time are of high standards.
Keep up the good work!
My problem:
I had a 80 gig hdd installed with xp on it, bought a 300 gig drive made it master drive, changed the 80 gig to slave.
On the 300gig drive I made two partitions, wich appeared in follow order on the installation screen:1st partition of 300 gig became C:, the 80 gig was D: and the second partition became E:, no problems so far.
I installed vista without a problem on C: did my updates etc installed EasyBCD version 1.7 and added the entry of xp.
On reboot I could pick the vista and xp installation and when choosing XP I got the NTLDR missing error, did some forum surfing, found the solution for the ntldr prob.
I copied the ntldr file and ntdetect.com file on the harddrive and when I reboot now and pick windows XP from the list the pc reboots!
I did a quick check if the 80 gig drive with XP one could boot on his one. Disconnected the 300 gig drive made the 80 gig master again and it booted without a problem.
So does anyone have a clue what is wrong?
Cheers,
