Before I’m using my new Dell’s laptop I had using my marvellous underwater laptop, a gift from my beloved friend. Last 2 month, Kimi ( name of that laptop) appeared this error “NTLDR is missing” and I’m deeply zero about this type or error and the cause.  So, I’m just let Kimi in rest this few months but deep in my heart im felt the lost of Kimi in my life.

So, today I’m decide to explore this problem with Uncle Google, i knew this Uncle Google can help me settle down this problem.

I never heard about NTLDR, so here is some googling about this term:

NTLDR (abbreviation of NT Loader) is the boot loader for all releases of Microsoft’s Windows NT operating system up to and including Windows XP and Windows Server 2003. NTLDR is typically run from the primary hard disk drive, but it can also run from portable storage devices such as a CD-ROM, USB flash drive, or floppy disk. NTLDR can also load a non NT-based operating system given the appropriate boot sector in a file.

NTLDR requires, at the minimum, the following two files to be on the system volume:

• NTLDR, which contains the main boot loader itself
• boot.ini, which contains configuration options for a boot menu.

To load an NT-based OS, ntdetect.com must also be present. (Strictly speaking, only NTLDR is actually required. If boot.ini is missing, NTLDR will default to C:\Windows on the first partition of the first hard drive. Many desktops in the home are in this configuration and a missing boot.ini file will simply generate an error stating it is missing, then boot into Windows successfully.)

The Volume Boot Record written to disk by the Windows NT format command attempts to load and to run the NTLDR program.

In Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008, NTLDR was replaced; the boot loader functionality is instead provided by two new components: winload.exe and the Windows Boot Manager.

So, i found the solution here:-

During the path toward solution i got a trouble on password, i never put any password at Kimi. Because i knew nobody will kidnapped Kimi from me, Kimi already broke physically but indeed Kimi is the most powerful laptop i ever had. So, i need to found another solution for that..gosh..Yup, need to revocer my never exist password. So, luckiy a lot of genenous person in internet sharing their knowledge here:-
