Also.. I've Been doing some reading and i read that
Winxp Uses: Boot.ini to BOOT UP
Win Vista/7 uses: BCD to boot up

My HD that had Win XP on it ALSO has WIn 7 on it/ DUal booted

Sooo... When i ran Nclaner it corrupted or deleted the BCD not alowing me to boot into the dual boot screen

I am not runing Gparted to remove the partion from my HD containing win7

When i have both hd's in it says NTLDR is missing

I'm not sure what you were using to setup dual boot before, but if I were you I'd try and install grub and see if it will boot after that. Check the following link for instructions on doing that: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351
