'insert system disk' error .. dualbooting xp/vista

Hi guys. I'm running three HDDs, two sata one ide. On my primary sata drive I have windows XP x32 installed as well as Ubuntu that I am dual booting using the Wubi application. I just bought a new sata drive that I hooked up and installed windows vista business x64 on.

When I rebooted my computer, and set the Vista HDD as boot priority, I am unable to log in. I get an error message stating something along the lines of "Disk boot failure, insert system disk". Where did I mess up? Ideally I want to be able to choose from all three OS's at start up. I thought this was as simple as changing boot priority in my BIOS to boot from my vista drive anytime I wanted. What do I need to do?

Thanks.
