bootstrap loader is software that you need to, load your OS into RAM .Linux grub a bootstrap loader is capable of loading differnent OS including xp and vista but windows loader can load only windows xp,vista.. etc

Installing windows after linux will overwrite linux grub loader with window NT loader .To recover grub loader just follow this link
