NTLDR is missing after retore
Here is what happened
1) On boot received a SMART message that the disk was failing and the message 'NTLDR is missing' started appearing. I was still able to run windows 7 by booting from my Acronis recovery DVD
2) I purchased another Hard Disk of the same size as the original. I tried to clone the disks but that failed. I therefore restored my latest backup to the new disk.
3) I have removed the failing disk and put the new disk in its place. The new disk is now referenced as Disk 0 and I have made it active. From a partition perspective it all looks OK - see attachment.
4) However I'm still getting 'NTLDR is missing' errors. I've tried researching and running the windows recovery environment after booting via the Windows 7 installation disk but haven't made any progress. I've run commands like
bootsect.exe /nt60 ALL
Bootrec /fixboot
but still no joy.
Any advice as to what to do next?
