    i found this:

    If your computer is using Microsoft Windows 2000 and you are encountering the NTLDR error. Create the below boot.ini file on the floppy diskette drive.

    [boot loader]
    timeout=30
    default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINNT
    [operating systems]
    multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINNT="Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional" /fastdetect

    Copy the NTLDR and NTDETECT.COM files from another computer using the same Operating System. Both of these files are located in the root directory of the primary hard disk drive. For example, C:\NTLDR and C:\NTDETECT.COM should be the locations of these files on many computers.

    * Please keep in mind that these files are hidden system files.

    Once these files have been copied to a floppy diskette reboot the computer and copy the NTLDR and NTDETECT.COM files to the root directory of the primary hard disk drive. Below is an example of what commonly should be performed from the A:\> drive.

    copy ntldr c:
    copy ntdetect.com c:

    After the above two files have been copied, remove the floppy diskette and reboot the computer.

    If you re-installed XP did you also re-install your graphic card's drivers? try that then try changing the resolution of your screen.

    btw the profanity in your sig is rather strong for a public forum, may be best to take out the C word.
