Hrmm.... Me thinks something is amiss! Last night at 3 am my server did a reboot after downloading updates. After that it would not reboot! For some reason it would say there was no operating system on the disk. At first I was thinking I left something open and was hacked (later found out about the update) but I was wrong. So here is where it is weird. If I have a bootable CD in the drive, it sees that, times out, then it will boot to the OS. I remove the CD, and it won't boot. Weird huh? It sounds like a hardware issue to me. So I will just keep a bootable CD in the drive that times out after 30 seconds. Anyways that's why everything was down. Of course nobody visits anymore.... :( (except Eric! He stays loyal! :) )

From the recovery console, try running bootcfg. This tool will allow you to rebuild the MBR. I found it very usefull in getting my system to dual boot. (for some reason XP didn’t want to do it during the setup phase)
