	GRUB is now default for a good variety of reasons, not the least of

	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.

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 ;-) )

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.

Tnx
