Cry Missing Operating System error on Boot

I have XPS 410 with Windows Vista 32 bit. My PC was working fine earlier but yesterday i tried to start it and ended up the message of 'Missing Operating System'. I am unable to login to windows.

As soon as my system boots up, it halts on the screen. This is how that screen looks:

Serial ATA AHCI BIOS.
Controller Bus#00, Device#1F, Function#02: 03 Ports, 03 Devices

Port-00: Hard Disk, Samsung SP22304c (this device is controlled by the RAID BIOS)

Port-01: Hard Disk, Samsung SP22304c (this device is controlled by the RAID BIOS)

Port-03: CDROM, TSSTcorp DVD+/-RW TS-H653A

ACHI BIOS Installed
Intel (R) Matriz Storage Manager option ROM v6.0.0.1022 ICH8R

RAID Volumes:

ID = 0
Name = ARRAY
LEVEL = RAID0 (Stripe)
Strip = 128kb
Size = 465.7 GB
Status = Normal
Bootable = Yes

Physical Disks:
Port Drive Model Serial # Size Type/Status (Vol ID)

0 Samsung SP2504C S09QJ1SP***** 232.8GB Error Occured (0)

1 Samsung SP2504C S09QJ1SP***** 232.8GB Error Occured (0)

Press CTRL-I to enter Configuration Utility

Missing Operating System

This is where the system stops and doesn't move any further.

Could anyone please help me that why i am getting this "Missing Operating System" message? How can i log back into my machine without reformatting the HDDs bcz i have very valuable data in it. I dont mind to restore the system provided I can pull the data out of it.

Please help. Thank You.
