Linux boot

I recently installed fedora core 1 as a dual boot along with windows xp. The windows partition boots up but after the windows xp logo comes up a blue screen comes up and the computer reboots and goes to grub bootloader menu. I am not able to boot into my windows partition but Linux works fine.

Can you still see your Windows files from Fedora? Are they aceesible? Does it happen every time?

Are files accessible?

Have you tried an repair install with your XP CD?

Booting from Windows XP cd -> selecting recovery console and running chkdsk /p might have helped rebuild/repair file table ...
