Well since you are here.... booting to DOS chances are you will NOT see those 
partitions from DOS. NTFS don't exist as far as DOS is concerned. You should 
be able to see something from FDISK. My guess is you could boot to dos and 
fix the boot loader and you should be good to go. Just reinstall XP and it 
should fix it. To get back to scratch do a sys C:. If it still doesn't work 
do a fdisk /mbr then a sys c:. good luck.
