Intel PRO/1000: be sure you use the LATEST PRO/1000 drivers. There have been
important changes in the newest couple of generations of GbE adapters.
Version 10.3 can be downloaded from Intel's website at:

The NTLDR Missing issue relates to the fact that the Lenovo SATA drive uses
a larger MBR than prior generations of PC in order to accommodate its
WinPE-based "diagnostic partition." If you only write a standard-size MBR,
your computer will not jump to the right disk location when it tries to boot
off the C: drive.

NOTE: I don't have a step-by-step solution to offer you for this problem,
but understanding the root cause may help. I don't remember whether I
learned this from reading IBM, Symantec (Ghost), or Microsoft online
documentation.

Good luck on that one, once you get the network card working you'll be in
NTLDR missing land...
