You may need to fix your master boot record (MBR). if you have an xp install disk, boot with this disk, run the recovery console (or if you hit F10 to run the recovery console you might be able to get there), and do a fixmbr...........if you do not know how to do this, let me know and I will post the detailed process! Good luck to you!
