cannot boot up Windows XP SP2 at all

's Computer Specifications

Hi,
I got a 0x0000008e error (no drivers listed) and then
I could not boot up XP SP2 at all. I was able to boot up
Mandrake Linux 9.2 just fine, so they share the drive and
the MBR. Could this be a virus ? It is not shareware,
because my system was clean before this happened.

Also, I tried the Recovery Console. It doesn't even list
my Windows XP partition.
