I just looked at their website and you should have:
grub-0.97-68.el6.x86_64.rpm
(obviously that's for a 64-bit version of SL6)
It is grub-0.97-13.5.i386

Yes, so it's grub. My link to the article describing restoring grub is for this particular version of grub.

actually the error in xp is system32/drivers/Ntfs.sys
I copied this from xp cd-rom by booting the system from USB ubuntu and paste it in /system32/drivers folder. I know it foolish...but i tried to find out the easiest solution.

Is there any short cut to do repair the windows?
