Weird bug with windows XP

About half an hour ago I was browsing internet when I suddenly got blue screen of death. It said something about windows error, and then rebooted the computer. However, when it started again, nothing happened after the bios screen. It was like there was no windows xp on my hard drive at all, even the windows installation cd didn't find it.

Then I installed new windows without formatting, and when it finished and rebooted, I could choose my old Windows XP from a list. I'm using it right now and it seems to work fine.

So the question is; How can I fix my old windows XP so that it will be recognized in the startup? And if that isn't possible, is it possible to make the new windows use old registry and settings, so I wouldn't have to reinstall everything?

Check to see if it's in the boot.ini.
