Hey guys I have a lilo problem here it is my first time to dual boot windows and linux using 2 seperate hardrives, always just had both OS's on 1 hardrive with no problems. I have x64windows on my 74 gig sata hardrive, in boot sequence this is the first to boot in bios, and then my ide drive that is 74 gigs that boots linux.After POST i get my lilo screen which asks me which OS to boot, if i choose Linux it works just fine, if I try and boot into windows IT hangs with a black screen and in the top left corner it says 'booting windows',or something it never boots.

I did expert install for Lilo and put lilo on the MBR of the sata drive since in the boot sequence it is the first to boot as opposed to the ide one.

Lilo config...

Any help would be great,
