GRUB cannot boot NTFS partitions?

I have an issue with booting NTFS partitions with Grub.
I have two HHD
1st HDD with Red Hat 9.0 and Grub as bootloader
2nd HDD with 8 Win partitions all ntfs.

I have added the following line in my grub.conf:

title Windows2000/Domino 6
root (hd1,0)
makeactive
chainloader +1

When I try to boot Windows I get:
Filesystem type uncknown, partition type 0x7
(0x7 means ntfs)

Any ideas?
