The problem is f*cking windows is able to boot only from the primary drive. But you can take a tricky way: use the command map, to exchange BIOS drives virtually, like this:

grub> map (hd0) (hd1)
grub> map (hd1) (hd0)

E.g. lets assume windows is installed on /dev/hdb2 then use this entry in grub.conf:

title Windows
map (hd1) (hd0)
map (hd0) (hd1)
rootnoverify (hd1,1)
