Make your problem explanation a bit clear

Anyway try this:

1.Insert the Vista DVD and boot using it
2.When "Install Now" window appears see for the option "Repair" left-down to that.
3.Setup will automatically look for errors and corrects it.
4.Else,Check the first option i.e "Boot loader Problems". Bootloader problems,if any will be resolved here..
