Boot with a msdos disk and run fdisk /mbr. This should rebuild the master boot record.

fdisk /mbr

If this doesn't do it and I don't know what would. Anyway, Bill G and Linus T should really get their arse together sit down and have dinner and come up with a standard solution for this. These stuffs bothers all of us. No?
