GRUB does not load Ms Winows loader

Hi to everyone

Yesterday I had to reinstall my dual boot because my bank smart card reader does not work with Solaris so I reinstalled Solaris after I installed Windows 7.
When I turn on PC I get grub stage 2 and Solaris has made an entry in menu.lst but does not boot windows .
Each OS has his HDD

output from uname -a -m

Code:
SunOS unknown 5.10 Generic_141445-09 i86pc i386 i86pc
Also i tried to remap hard disks but with no luck

Output form my menu.lst

Code:
title Windows
        map (hd0) (hd0)
        map (hd0) (hd0)
        rootnoverify (hd0,0)
        chainloader +1

windows is booting normally when I change boot device order , i could try something with ubuntu live CD to view boot order


Resolved

Solution is to look into Linux fdsik -l

and than modify Solaris Grub menu.lst
update grub
sync
shutdown -y -g0 -i6

my windows is booting from grub
