Did you just install Windows?

If you did, Windows has over written your MBR with its
own on the 
primary hard drive.. you will need to install grub
again into the MBR.. 
Best bet is to boot CD1 in rescue mode as others have
suggested..

For future reference if you want a dual boot system
its best to install 
Windows first and then Linux..

later..

well i have a compaq and it came with windows.  compaq
also has a partition on the primary hard drive for
recovery.  compaq system recovery ran after I
installed linux but I cancelled it because I didnt
want my windows info wiped out.  Would it be a good
idea to put my hard drives into removable trays so I
dont have to use a bootloader altogether?
