Grub not opening Windows

[Dotan Cohen]

On a new install of Kubuntu 9.04 dual booting with WIndows, the user
cannot boot Windows. The system has two hard drives: Windows on sda
and Kubuntu on sdb. When I performed the install the BIOS was set to
boot from sda, but as Kubuntu and Grub installed to sdb I changed the
BIOS to boot from sdb. Now after I made the BIOS change when the user
selects Windows from grub the "Starting Up..." Windows message sits
there for hours, he never gets to the Windows splash screen. If he
presses Enter then he sees a message about his network card looking
for a DHCP server.

Changing the BIOS to boot from sda instead of sdb lets Windows boot
normally, therefore I suspect no problems with he Windows install.

Any ideas how to fix this? It is not practical for the user to change
his BIOS settings per which OS he needs to boot. Thanks!
