Sorry for the delay Cz,

The best option I can think of right now is to use your Windows Setup CD.

Insert the CD in the drive during startup, you may be prompted to press any key to boot from CD.

Varies a little between versions, but if your running XP, you will get to the initial Windows XP Setup screen, and press [Enter] to install and then on the next screen, press -R- to repair. If you reach the point where your being asked to partition or format your disk, then you've gone too far.

If your running Vista, you'll only have the options for "Startup Repair" or "System Restore".. which isn't likely to work, but certainly worth a try.
