[ubuntu-uk] Grub on Windows machine

[Gargoyle]

You should be able to boot from your XP installation CD, and choose  
the recovery console. Once you are at the recovery command prompt,  
type "FIXMBR" to put the default windows boot program back onto the  
disk.

See here (http://forums.fedoraforum.org/archive/index.php/ 
t-6036.html) for a similar problem with Red Had / Fedora. I was going  
to see if there was a similar thread in the ubuntu forum, but it's  
offline at the moment.
