Hi there,

Quick question : What OS are you trying to boot ?

Some things you could try is to make the partition you want to boot
"Active", fire up fdisk and you'll see the option there (in Linux I think it
is the A command), under Windows fdisk it's "Make partition active"

Could be that you have got a valid MBR but there just isn't a partition
marked as "Bootable" :-)

Regards

Mark
