Karl,

As I said before, though not quite as clearly, boot the computer.
Look at the boot menu.  The first item listed is item 0.  The next
item listed is 1.  The third item listed is 2 and so on and so on.

Count the items until you reach the option to boot windows.

THAT's the number you need to set the grub default to.
