    hi
    best way to solve this problem contact your HARDWARE MANUFACTURER for more hlep.
    The manufacturer may have a utility that you can use to perform a more detailed scan for damaged areas of the disk and help verify the correct BIOS settings.

    Use the fixmbr command in the Windows XP Recovery Console to repair the MBR of the startup partition.

    If the partition that is marked as active does not contain the Windows XP startup files, or the active partition is an incompatible or a different operating system, you must first mark the correct system partition as active before you restart the computer.
    or can get help from HERE
    i hope this will work.
