For your question, you may want to drop to root and run grub-update 
and grub-install /dev/sdX where sdX might be /dev/sda in your case.




I ran the command:  grub-install /dev/sda and my rebooted.  The Win XP 
now shows up in the list.  However, my Debian install does not!  My 
options are back to what they were before I installed Debian, which are 
Mint and XP.




You ran 'grub-install /dev/sda' and 'update-grub'?

 As root, run update-grub, then reboot and see if XP is there.

And if not, check that os-prober is installed.
