i have a hard drive that i wanted to hook up as a slave and i set the jumper and wen i boot the computer it shows up in bios but then it comes to an error that reads" NTLDR is missing press crnt alt del to restart." anyone know what to do.. when i dont run the slave it boots up fine

Well right off I'd assume you didn't set the jumper correctly It's telling you it's trying to boot from a non bootable source.

PS: PS: How do you have the two drives hooked to the ribbon. The slave should be in the middle the master at the end.

I agree. Try setting the jumper to CS (cable select). Also double check to ensure that the cables are fully seated on both drives.
