Have you cleared the CMOS, and reloaded the setup defaults?

"NTLDR MISSING" is an OS issue. Did you just install xp? For this is usually associated with trying to install xp over me. Go to Microsoft website and search the issue. Good luck.
 
You may need to LLF the hardrive and then do a clean install.

Don't forget if you have the boot order setup to removable media before hdd, a non bootable floppy in the drive will cause this error. It sometimes happens if you are loading drivers off of a floppy or a BIOS and you forget about the disk.
