If hd0 is your Vista, then you have problabe installed GRUB to the MBR
of that disk and not sdb.
In that case UUIDs get used for the $prefix where GRUB loads everything
it needs from itself, i.e. the modules.
Just run `sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc' unselect /dev/sda and
select /dev/sdb
and then change your BIOS boot order to boot from sdb and not any more
from sda.
