Troubles with Dual Boot(GRUB)


hey,

I've Laptop Lenovo G510, I tried to make a dual boot(GRUB)With Linux REDHAT 6.3 64bit with Windows 7 Unlimited.
I installed the Windows 7 first and after couple weeks (yester-day) I've Installed the Linux operation.
While the installation I Created a Swap partition of 2048G and ext4 partition of 117G.
everything went well, he recognize the windows 7 (NTFS), he asked me too choose which partition will be the first to load without choosing.
but the troubles start when I choose to loading the Windows 7.
Then appear a message BOOT is MISSING.
I know that in the /etc/grub.conf - you can edit there the operation but there I have only the Linux Operation. I chaecked in Disk Utility and there the recognize the partition NTFS.
How can I fix it that when I choose the Windows 7 Its will loading up?

thx anyone!

Boot Red Hat, log in as the root user and run this command and post the output here: fdisk -l(Lower Case Letter L in the command)
Post the contents of the /boot/grub/grub.conf file.
