my daughter has a sony laptop and i think by accident she has deleted something and now its not working.When she trys to switch it on she gets a black screen with the words NTLDR is missing press CTRL+ALT+DEL to restart but nothing works,windows is built into the hd,i've read a litle bit saying it could be that the hd is corrupt or the os is not working,i don't have much idea on this sort of thing,but i have a windows OEM disc off my desktop,would this help to reinstall windows or am i better off trying something else any advice will begrateful thanks

You have some options here.

1)Easy option, reinstall windows. You'll lose all your software etc but a fresh start is always good.

2)Look here: http://tinyempire.com/notes/ntldrismissing.htm

Good luck.
