You don't have to re-install your system, that's for sure.
Since you chose to upgrade to grub2, spend some time reading its 
documentation and then from a live cd that supports grub2 try to make it 
function.
Needless to say, you can always revert back to legacy grub and rewrite 
menu.lst (I can't understand who deleted that).
No worries though, your system is there, waiting for the right 
bootloader config in order to boot again...
