I hope you have the Operating System CD, Incase you have it then try booting from the CD and get to recovery console. Once you are in the Recovery console try typing the below mentioned commands and HIT enter after each line.

attrib bootmgr -s -r -h
del bootmgr
ren temp bootmgr
attrib bootmgr -a +s +r +h
if that doesn't fix then try

bootrec /fixboot
bootrec /fixmbr

this should fix the problem.

First before doing this you need to make sure you have your windows vista CD.

If you do not you need to obtain a copy of this,

the following site should have all the details you need to make the CD and also to fix the problem :)
