If this is the disk you've created when installing debian, then it is syslinux. You can check the disk from dos (because it's a fat fs). There should be a file named ldlinux.sys. The config file is syslinux.cfg. It has a line like : APPEND root=/dev/hda2 ro This tells the kernel from what partition to mount the root fs. If you haven't modified the config file, I really don't know how gets windows loaded. Maybe you should check the disk with scandisk.
