Since you haven't gotten many response, I figured I take a stab.  It's been a 
while since I've had to understnad GRUB, so I'm pretty much guessing here.

First, I have a "makeactive" line before "chainloader +1".  I believe this 
makes the partition active so that it's boot record will be read.

Second, maybe your Windows partition never had a boot record, but was instead 
booting from the disk boot record.  (Sorry if my terminology isn't quite 
correct.)  Then when you installed GRUB it over wrote the Windows boot code 
sitting in the disk boot record.  Maybe putting the Windows boot code on the 
Windows partition will make things work.
