NTLDR is a Known as the Network Loader. It helps in loading the operating system. If it is showing Ntldr is missing you need to copy the ntldr file from operating system CD.

Copy the ntldr and ntdetect.com files from the xp cd to your computer

1.Insert the windows xp bootable cd into the computer.
2.When prompted to press any key to boot from the cd, press any key.
3.Once in the windows xp setupmenu press "R" key to repair the windwos.
4.Log into your windows installation by pressing 1key and press enter.
5.when you are prompted for your administrator password. enter the password.
6.Copy the two files to the root directory of the primary hard disk.
copy cdrom:i386ntldr c:
copy cdrom:i386ntdetect.com c:
7. Once both of these files have been successfully copied, remove the cd from the computer and reboot.

You can reload the operating system through CD / DVD / Ghost mode. It will solve this issue. Before installing OS you should check your HDD is visible in CMOS or not.
