Corrupted C:

My winXP computer won't boot. . . the boot menu can't see windows. If I run the winXP install disk, setup says that C: is unpartitioned, it sees D: as FAT32 (correct) and it doesn't see E: at all. When I boot off of a win98 startup disk, I have access to all drives.

My winXP computer won't boot... the boot menu can't see windows. If I run the winXP install disk, setup says that C: is unpartitioned, it sees D: as FAT32 (correct) and it doesn't see E: at all. When I boot off of a win98 startup disk, I have access to all drives. They appear undamaged.
 
The hard drive is a WD 160GB JB. All partitions were FAT32. Is there anything I can do to fix this?
