GeneralP,
Hi, not sure how it is you came across this message; bad install or new hardware upgrade or dual boot?
But I did run into something that may or may not be helpful. I haven't seen this either.
The first thing I saw was at a Microsoft discussion group here:
http://www.microsoft.com/communities/new...exp=&sloc=en-us

There were a couple of links within that group that looked promising, here:

and
http://thevistaforums.com/index.php?autocom=ineo&showarticle=32

So good luck and let us know if it helps.

You might want to run a "chckdsk c:/f" command on your system partition. If you had an abnormal shutdown prior to this problem, your system files might have got corrupted.

If that doesn't work to the following to repair your bootloader.
