reinstalling nt boot loader, HELP

Hey guys,

I recently deleted my linux partitions which left me with the grub boot loader. I can now only access my computer through a boot disk with a boot.ini file on it. I tried to go into command line when i get into windows and run "fixmbr" and "fdisk /mbr" but it says that these commands are not recognized. In addition, I do not have my windows XP cd with me. Is there any way i can rebuild the windows boot loader? thanks for the help in advance.

I belive that you will need the boot disk to build the boot files. You can download this file from microsoft and it comes up as a cabnet file just click on it will take you into dos and make you boot disk (This dose require 6 floppies)
