Hi, my friend has recently got this error message saying "Operating System not found" at the startup. I have tried to fix the master boot record but no success. Although, I used aefdisk and for some reason the partition wasn't enabled, but it is now. After that I got a message saying NTLDR missing press ctrl+alt+del to restart. Then I restarted again and im still getting the operating system not found. Also, I cant even open FDISK anymore because it says something about no devices or something. It's like the computer doesnt even read the hard drive anymore. I checked the bios and everything looks the same as it was before. I also put them to defaults and still nothing. Computer w/problem Gateway with Pheonix bios from like 1999. Windows XP Pentium III 2 Hard Drives, Neither of them recognized Any help would be appreciated... Thankyou!
