You probably need to make your windows partition active again and reinstall the appropriate bootloader for you OS Vista-BCD/XP-ntlder. This can be done using the OS boot/install cd/dvd. Once done you will only have windows as a selectable OS my advice is to modify the bootloader in windows to add MAC OS X as an OS to the bootloader. Guides can be found to perform such an action across the internet.

it depends, are you usingg Vista or XP?

 

For vista:

 

Boot up with the Vista DVD

Repair Your computer

Command Prompt

DISKPART

Select Disk # (# is where windows is)

Select Partition # (# is the partition where windows is)

active

exit

bootrec /fixboot

bootrec /fixmbr

 

For XP:

 

Insert your XP CD

Enter Recovery Console

Type:

fixmbr

y

exit
