Hi Alllogical partition.. if that is the issue you can resolve it very easily..
I have a dual boot box, Intel 2.5GHZ,2gig ram, 250G HDD
dual booting XP and DEbian 5.0.
Today morning, it did not boot WIN when I wanted to do some
Office work (presentation with AtuoCad drgs).
Evening I returned, booted into Debian without any problem,
browsed net, e mailed.
Now from Debian side I am able to see WIN Partitions and see the
files also. I can view pictures, play movies etc, but WIN will not
boot.
I face a blue screen with message " UNMOUNTABLE BOOT VOLUME"
Probebly due to a new Hardware not properly installed, blah, blah...
it goes on,
I have not installed any new hardware.
But fdisk gives following output

This problem is probably because, you have installed grub+debian in a
debian:/home/srikanth# fdisk -l /dev/sda1

This doesn't look like a partition table
Probably you selected the wrong device.
