Sounds like the master boot record could have been corrupted when the PC was shut down improperly.
You would need to insert your Windows installation CD, then boot from CD.
When powering up the PC, hit the F2 key to get into the BIOS, look for the Boot options and select your CD/DVD drive as the first boot option (your Hard Drive will most likely be the first option right now and using the F keys should be able to toggle and change the sort order priorities). When you restart, it should say something like 'press any key to boot from cd' and then it should lead you to the Windows installation disc options, which should have a 'repair' option. Hopefully that should fix it.
