dos, boot with a dos floppy that contains fdisk. run fdisk /mbr
win 9x boot with the appropriate 9x floppy and run the same command
Windows 2000/xp
boot from cd and choose repair. this launches recovery console. select the appropriate installation that is listed. usually choice 1 if you only have 1 os installed. enter your password as requested. at the command prompt type: fixboot and press enter. then fixmbr and press enter. Reboot and see if that works.
NT i cant remember the method. It's been a while since I worked with nt. If you have NT let me know and ill see if i can find it for you. That should do it.
