Netldr is missing press any key to restart.
Get this on my laptop today. All I did was to increase the ram from 64 to 128 and now this message. When I press any key it comes up. So then why the message and how do I dump it?

Thanks, JB

You didn't rearrange any of the hard drives did you (in terms of partitions, or master/slave settings...??)
And make sure there isn't a floppy in the drive...
If you have a Windows 2000 CD, try booting from it and see if you can do a "Repair"
The data on your drive is probably still ok: the problem is that Windows is having trouble finding the code it needs to boot up completely.

Did you previously have Windows 95 or 98 on that laptop?
Sorry, Rapmaster got to you first and possibly answered it.

If none of that works, put it back the way it was and try again.
Depending on vintage, not every laptop can take 128MB of RAM. Of course, if you'd told us a little something about this mysterious laptop, we might not have to guess if yours is one of those.
