ok so i dont know why lilo doesnt find the hda1(windows) when it finds the linx, i read some things about having to eadit the lilo.config file but i am not sure how to do that....still i try

you have to edit the file /etc/lilo.conf
For this, open a console and type su to switch to the super-user mode
then open /etc/lilo.conf with your prefered text editor (entering for example emacs /etc/lilo.conf &)
add to the end of the file


other=/hda1
label=win2k (or the name you want to see in the boot menu)
table=/hda


then save the file and close it
enter lilo -v in the comand line to register the new version of lilo you've just made
then reboot and try to select the win2k line...
