Dual Boot (Win7/Fedora10) problem

[gpv01]

After following the Fedora installation instructions, and the EasyBCD setup (and reboot), I get the following error when I select Linux from the boot menu:

Windows failed to start ...
File: \NST\nst_grub.mbr
Status: 0xc000000f
Info: The selected entry could not be loaded because the application is missing or corrupt.
​

Additional information
The base PC configuration is Windows 7, 64 bit, on a Xeon quad processor. There are two 1.5TB SATA drives. Windows is on the first drive. I shrunk the windows partition on drive #1 to about 500G, and deleted the partition on drive #2. Then I told Fedora 10 (I know it's old, but I need the F10 version of the netem package) to take all available space. It created a 196M boot partition on drive #1, and grabbed the rest of drive #1 and all of drive #2 for the root partition. The only glitch in installing Fedora is that F10 doesn't seem to have a driver for my graphics HW, so I had to use the curses-like installation interface rather than Gnome. Other than that, it went pretty much as described in your instructions.

Here is the EasyBCD "View" information -
