NTLDR Missing, but using dual boot

I have Win 7 U x64 on drive C which is only used as a back up drive, then i have another Win7 U X64 on drive D and i normally boot and get the option of C Drive which as i say i never use and boot into D Drive, however i have now got the dreaded "NTLDR is Missing" error however if i was to reboot and go into the Asus Z87 Deluxe BIOS and select manually C Drive it will boot into that fine.

All the fixes i see refer to single boot system and i'm worried using that route will be no good for me.

On a seperate i do have an old "Acronis True Image" image from a few days ago could i extract a certain file from that image and relaod that way?

Your thought and comments are welcome.

Christ knows. I have not had XP on any drives for years in fact all the drives i have in the machine, have never come in contact with XP, I'm up and running but had to go back to an old image that is about a week old, which is no big deal as i have my email backed up.

Sounds to me that the BCD on drive D: was handling the boot chores, and the entry for c:\windows got corrupted - as Miles said, thinking it's an XP install. But the BCD on the C drive was fine all along and would boot directly. The organic fix would have been, I believe, rebuilding the BCD on the D: drive. At least you're up and running, but it's good to understand what was going on.
