my /boot/grub/menu is here (actually it is of the guy I am trying to help, I hope he will join the list ASAP ;-) )
GRUB is now default for a good variety of reasons, not the least of which is it is easier to configure.
I believe that your problems have more to do with the windows partition, as you stated that it happened suddenly, I assume that recently, you could boot into either Fedora or Win.
Think back to the last time you were in windows. Did you do any deleting of files in the C: drive? how about a bad crash?
Did you edit the Grub config file? Please post your /boot/grub/menu.lst also send the results of df run from terminal (as root) and finally run fdisk -l /dev/hda will be necessary if we are going to be able to tell you how to fix this.

here is the ouput of df command
Filesystem blocchi di 1K Usati Disponib. Uso% Montato su /dev/hdb2 14152372 2977916 10455548 23% / /dev/hdb1 101086 12533 83334 14% /boot none 127504 0 127504 0% /dev/shm
Fdisk will follow as he didn't find the command and it was too late last night.........anyway he doesn't remember any deletion of files or bad crash.... Yes, he could boot both Fedora and Windows.
