Installing Ubuntu Linux

Question

I have a pc with a completely blank hard drive and a disc with Linux Ubuntu. Im not sure what to do to install this O/S. Whenever I turn the pc with this blank hard drive i get the "NTLDR is Missing". What do i do?

Answer 1

On the Ubuntu website it offered two downloads for the OS, and I found the first kept on freezing when it was loading, so I tried downloading the second one at it worked fine.

Answer 2

There are two possible reasons and solutions to try to fix NTLDR.

1st option:

.....Use different CD-ROM or DVD-ROM to install your Linux Ubuntu. I encounter this kind of problem before, my CD-ROM doesn't read well.

2nd Option:

.....If 1st option didn't work, the problem is on your CD/DVD. The CD/DVD you are trying to install is Corrupted.
