I originally had xp installed then installed ubuntu 8.1 on its own partition and then couldn't xp to load - i'd get to the xp load screen with the dots across the screen then it went to stop code 24 bsod. I then checked with gparted and this is what I saw... Do I now have no xp installation?:cry:

Boot from the Live CD. Your data is probably OK. Search the forums for how to repair the MBR.

I have tried to but i couldnt find anything that worked. My xp installation cd showed an empty partition so i think the table must be shot. I've started to reinstall anyway, but thanks for the reply.
