Trouble after reinstalling xp

Ouch..
You really should have disabled HnS before reinstalling XP - now HnS is no longer the bootloader, and you have no way of making it show.
Download the latest copy of HnS and run this:
Start -> Run -> cmd.exe
Copy data\GRLDR from HnS' folder to the partition with NTLDR. Rename it from GRLDR to BOOTMGR. Reboot.
That should give you a menu to boot into Vista with. Once that's done, re-run HnS in Vista to uninstall, then re-install it to add all XP and Vista entries properly.
