What is the name of the Windows NT2000XP boot loader program?

In order to answer the question, one would need to know for which operating system the "bootstrap loader" or boot loader is intended. There have been many boot loaders since electronic computers capable of running stored programs were first developed. Some of the earliest bootstrap loaders had no name at all; they were merely a list of steps one would execute to flip switches on the front panel of a computer to enter a rudimentary set of instructions that would allow the computer to finish loading its operating program from a paper tape reader or stack of punched cards. One popular boot loader used with Linux systems today is called GRUB, which stands for "Grand Unified Boot Loader".
