Is the partition marked as active? You might be able to do something booting into the XP recovery console and trying fixboot and fixmbr (I think those were the commands since they moved them out of fdisk) seems fdisk is no longer there, that could have been used to mark a partition active.

If not try putting the disk into another PC and use the disk manager on there to mark it as active.
