An NTLDR is compressed error is pretty easy to fix(much better then
NTLDR is missing errors!).
First you need to boot to the recovery
console.
To boot to the recovery console follow these steps: 1. Insert
the Windows XP CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive, and then restart the
computer. Click(or press any key) to select any options that are
required to start the computer from the CD-ROM drive if you are
prompted. 2. When the "Welcome to Setup" screen appears, press R to
start the Recovery Console. 3. When prompted type "1" or if you
have a dual-boot or multiple-boot computer, select the installation that
you must access from the Recovery Console. 4. When you are
prompted, type the Administrator password. If the administrator password
is blank, just press ENTER. 5. Now you should be at the comman
prompt and ready to repair the ntldr file!
Now all you need to do
is enter the following commands(in order) and each command on a new
line just like you see them here:
cd \ attrib -c ntldr exit
Your computer should now reboot, and everything "should" work!
You can try to fix the NTLDR compressed issue by repairing it using the Windows XP OS Installation Disc
1. Restart your computer, make sure that the boot priority is on the DVD/CD Rom drive 2. Press any key to boot from CD... 3. When the Welcome setup shows up press "R" to go to Recovery console 4. Press 1 to choose the drive where the OS is installed, or a different number if your computer is configured for multibooting 5. Just press enter for the password, but if you have administrator password type in your password. 6. Type this command without quotes "attrib -c ntldr" 7. Restart your computer and it should fix the problem, if not, tell me what happen
The amber power light indicates that your computer has been "sleeping" or "hibernating" and usually all it takes to restart the computer is tapping a key on the keyboard. If this is not the case, try holding the Power switch down for 6-10 seconds to force the system off. Restart in Safe Mode and try to find the settings for Sleep/hibernate, open the control panel and open the Screen Saver. Select "Change Power Settings" and set it for "Never" on sleep and hybernate.

Looks like the destructive restore did not complete alltogether. Try running the restore one more time to see if it will finish this time. If not, then try reinstalling Windows from a regular CD (like XP or so)
