Talking SOLUTION: Fix for BOOTMGR
I dug around a bit more and found out that for some reason if you install Vista onto a SATA drive and you have another drive on the system that is PATA that vista will for some reason install the BOOMGR ont he PATA drive.

Solution:
1. Shutdown computer
2. Unhook the PATA drive
3. Turn on computer and boot with Vista DVD into the windows installer
4. Instead of install select repair at the bottom.
5. If it doesnt do it automatically select the startup repair
6. It will prompt you to retart
7. You should now be able to restart without the DVD
8. Now shutdown your computer again and you should be able to hook up your PATA drive and reboot just fine!

This works for me I hope it works for you

Now if I can just find out how to fix that USB tuner :-/
