You need to use the Bootrec.exe tool in the Windows Recovery Environment. For that you need to boot into Recovery Environment and perform a "Startup Repair". If that fails then boot into WinRE again, and go to the "Command Prompt" and execute this command:

Bootrec.exe /RebuildBcd

Also check BIOS if its set to boot of the proper HDD.
Sounds dumb but I had an asus board which occasionally swapped the primary HDD in boot order.
