So I had a thought...I opened up my boot.ini and found it listing multiple operating systems under the operating systems...

[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOW S
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Micro soft Windows XP Home Edition" /fastdetect
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(1)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Micro soft Windows XP Home Edition" /fastdetect
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Micro soft Windows XP Home Edition" /fastdetect /NoExecute=OptIn /noguiboot /bootlogo

Would deleting all but the working Windows fix the problem?

when i messed with the boot loader it messed up my boot so now i use a cd with the boot loader on it. im to lazy to fix it on the drive. it is kinda neat like a physical boot key for my pc

Well, whatever works for you...
here's a link on how to put it back in
