Here is my system info:
Pentium 4 running at 2.0 gighertz
512 megs memory
Memorex 4X DVD burner and Emprex 4X DVD burner
I had been running Windows ME on a 40 gig hard drive for over a year. Decided to get a bigger hard drive and load Windows XP Pro, but wanted to keep all my original settings, emails, etc...
So I used a program called PC Relocator. It saved my WinME settings to DVD-RW, then I did a fresh load of Windows XP on the new Maxtor 200 GIG hard drive. After WinXP was loaded, I ran the PC Relocator program and it ported everthing over. System ran great for two days, then on the third morning it would not boot up at all. Gave the message "No Operating System Found".
I tried all kinds of things, even tried to re-load WinXP on the Maxtor drive but could not do it ( figured it was a bad hard drive and returned it for replacement.)
OK, so I load Windows XP on the new Maxtor 200 GIG drive and do the relocation of my setting again. System works great for over a week. Then again, will not start up one morning. Now giving me the error "NTLDR is missing".
WHAT IS GOING ON??? Is it the relocation process???? Is Maxtor a bad hard drive???? Am I an idiot??? ( don't answer that pleas

Any help would be appreciated
P.S. I already tried loading the NTLDR files from the WinXP CD, didn't work. Thanks.
