Oh another effective way is to go into debug from the dos command prompt and
enter this series of commands:
-F 220 L1000 0 (ENTER)
-A CS: 100 (ENTER)
MOV AX,301 (ENTER)
MOV BX,200 (ENTER)
MOV CX,1 (ENTER)
MOV DX,80 (ENTER) <---"80" for hd1, "81" for hd2 >
INT 13 (ENTER)
INT 20 (ENTER)
(ENTER) <-------BLANK LINE "VERY IMPORTANT" >
-G (ENTER)

Reboot after doing this and reinstall NT you will no longer have grub.
