can you email us the lilo config file its should be somewhere under
/etc/lilo.conf

1) make sure you have a bootable disk/rescue cd just in case

As root
2) edit lilo.conf after making a backup copy of it to include windows
something like this assuming win is in 1st partition :

other=/dev/hda1
label=window		

3) run /sbin/lilo

4)the output should show no errors and both win, and linux
