Re: where can i get partition magic and....
If you can get into Linux, reinstall which ever boot loader you've got there into the MBR, and then add another entry in your /etc/{grub,lilo}.conf file to point to the other file system.
You want to install the boot loader into /dev/hda's MBR, or using a Grub reference: (hd0,0).
Do you know which boot loader you installed when you installed Linux? Your choices are 'Lilo' or 'Grub'.
If you tell us, I'll see what I can do to throwing out some more detailed instructions.

SolutionModify /etc/lilo.conf
boot=/dev/hda
..
..
image=/boot/vmlinuz-...
label=linux
read-only
root=/dev/hdb?
other=/dev/hda1
label=WinXP
Make sure it has similar things. Re-run '/sbin/lilo', and try a re-boot.
You might need to boot off your CD into rescue mode, and chroot /dev/hdb? (whichever your root partition is).
If you need more help, we'll need some details:
a copy of /etc/lilo.conf
sfdisk -l /dev/hda
sfdisk -l /dev/hdb
This will show us where the various pieces of information are hiding.

Re: where can i get partition magic and....
You will hate it at first, but try the program vi.
vi /filename_to_edit
You'll want to search itrc and learn the basics, but hard core admins all learn vi.
We all resist at first, but we all eventually capitulate.
Transferring files back and forth to a windows environment can cause problems. If you transfer a file in binary format that should be ascii, it will screw up the Linux/Unix system.
Partition magic is available at most computer stores for around $49(US).
