Troubleshooting and Solution

  • Set the BIOS to default settings.

  • Check that the latest version on BIOS is installed on the system. Update the BIOS if needed.

  • Create a boot disk with NTLDR, Ntdetect.com, Boot.ini and Ntbootdd.sys. And copy the Ntldr, NTdetect.com and Boot.ini to the system partition. Before copying the boot.ini, modify the file to point to the correct hard disk controller and to the correct volume for the Windows installation.

  • Another method is to use the recovery console on Windows 2000/XP CD. Once at the command prompt type

    "copy drive:\i386\ntldr c:\" (Without quotes)

    "copy drive:\i386\ntdetect.com c:\" (Without quotes)

  • Then Edit the Boot.ini file to point to correct disk controller.

  • The repair option available on the Windows CD can also be used to resolve the error.

  • If none of the steps work, then reinstall the operating system.
