Post HELP! WIn7 and Fedora 12 dual-boot

Hello, Thank you for checking out my thread.

Today I installed Fedora 12 on my new laptop Sony Vaio NW with windows & preinstalled in it. I already saved like 54GB free space for Fedora so space was no problem and during set up I choose the bootloader to be installed in the root. installation was completely successful but when I rebooted it, I got this message
Code:
no operating system found
the bootloader was totally GONE! it was neither windows bootloader, nor grub.
so i had to use thewindows recovery disk to reinstall windows bootloader and then my windows came back in life, but cant find any sign of Fedora.
Any suggestion??
Please help, I hate windows.
thank you

p.s. my system is 64bit.
