Hi Willem
As root open the file /boot/grub/menu.lst in an editor and add these lines
at the bottom:
title Windows
root (hd0,0)
makeactive
chainloader +1
Save the file. This should fix it as long as long as the Windows C: drive
is Grub's (hd0,0). Before rebooting you can check this with cfdisk.
cfdisk /dev/hda
/dev/hda is (h0,0) in Grub - the Grand Universal Boot Loader - and usually
C: drive in Windows. You should get an output like this:
cfdisk (util-linux-ng 2.13.1-rc1)
Disk Drive: /dev/hda
Size: 81964302336 bytes, 81.9 GB
Heads: 16 Sectors per Track: 63 Cylinders: 158816

hda1 Boot Primary W95 FAT32 (LBA)
5120.19
hda2 Primary Linux ext3

......
or whatever.
