A lot of new computers come with a partition at the beginning of the hard drive that has the recovery utilities on it. Most of the time, XP skips this partition and boots into the normal XP, which is actually on the second partition. It's possible that grub got confused and pointed the bootloader to the recovery partition instead of the XP partition. Do this for us:The fact that it got as far as XP recovery sounds like it actually is booting up fine, but that something on your XP hard drive got messed up and that is why windows wants to do a recovery.
cat /proc/partitions
and send us the output. You can dump the output to a file by running:
cat /proc/partitions > filename
and then sending us the file like you did with the grub.conf.
