    If you are saying that Windows doesn't show up in the boot menu, you can add it to your menu.lst file. The entry should look something like this:

    Code:
    # (1) Windows XP Pro
title Windows XP
rootnoverify (hd0,0)
makeactive
chainloader +1
    Change the (hd0,0) as needed to match your own system.
