Windows XP gone after Vista installation

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

I got an HP m7490n desktop and installed the Vista Beta 2 on it. So so
far Vista is running fine, except when I try to boot Win XP, it gave me
a blank screen and 10 minutes later and it was still a blank screen.

The Win XP is selected when I boot the machine and chose "Earlier
version Windows" in the dual boot screen installed by Vista Beta 2.
