    Moved Hardrive after install

    A few weeks ago i installed Kubuntu 8.04... found that it doesnt have capatability with Intel HDA Sound card... I was told that 8.10 had a driver for it, which it does. the update via Adept to Intrepid, conflicted with an outdated Compiz and Emerald, crashing my GUI, and i couldnt get it to work. I downloaded the 8.10 CD, and installed it fresh, with dual boot with Windows XP. Before the installation, I had 3 hard drives. I was installing on [sda]
    HDD, when I was in installation, and got to the partitions, i chose manual, then it showed WinXP on my 500gb (primary) on [sdb]. And it moved the original [sdb] to [sda] so the first two HDD switched, now when i boot from GRUB 1.5, and choose WinXP, i get NTLDR error.

    Basically, I need to find a way to move my [sda] drive to [sdb] and [sdb] to [sda]

    Solutions?

    PS
    sudo fdisk -lu
