Grub will not load Windows XP with Ubuntu dual boot

[Alex4R]

I recently configured a dual boot with Windows XP Professional SP2 and Ubuntu v4.10. I already had XP installed, and I resized my partition using partition magic. Then I installed Ubuntu to the new partition.

When I turn on the computer, if I select Ubuntu from my list of operating systems, it will load just fine. But when I select Windows, it hangs. No errors or anything. Here is the grub config for Windows:

root (hdd0,0)
File system type unknown, partition type 0x7
save default
make active
chainloader +1

This is the screen that it is stuck on:

Any help will be appreciated!

have a look at your /boot/grub/grub.conf file (in your Linux) and see what it looks like for the windows choice . It should look like :-

title Windows XP
   rootnoverify (hd2,0)
   makeactive
   chainloader +1

where the (hd2,0) will be replaced by the hard disk and partition number relevant to your setup (see tha tutorial on grub boot problems in this site for more info - http://www.linuxforums.org/tutorials...ial-19999.html )
