Well I think I'll need more information please!

What is the output of /sbin/fdisk -l (that is a lower case "L" and run
as root)
Please post your /boot/grub/grub.conf
Just to be sure, post your /boot/grub/device.map file too
What exactly do you see when you try to boot Windows?

Maybe someone else knows for sure, but I recall that various earlier
versions of windows needed to be the first partition on the first drive
of a system.  Did you ever have your system with Win98 as the second
partition with no other OS on the drive?
