I have Arch installed as my main OS however now need to get a dual boot working with Windows 7.
I have installed Windows 7 to a partition as below
sda 8:0 0 931.5G 0 disk
├─sda1 8:1 0 734G 0 part / //Arch Linux Install
├─sda2 8:2 0 100M 0 part //Partition windows created?
└─sda3 8:3 0 197.4G 0 part //main Windows partition
My Grub.conf has the below section which has been generated by OS-prober
menuentry 'Windows 7 (loader) (on /dev/sda2)' --class windows --class os $menuentry_id_option 'osprober-chain-EE8401AB840176FD' {
insmod part_msdos
insmod ntfs
set root='hd0,msdos2'
if [ x$feature_platform_search_hint = xy ]; then
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root --hint-bios=hd0,msdos2 --hint-efi=hd0,msdos2 --hint-baremetal=ahci0,msdos2 EE8401AB840176FD
else
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root EE8401AB840176FD
fi
chainloader +1
}
When I boot windows all I get is a blank screen, althought the windows splash sound does play, so im not sure if this is actually a boot issue or perhaps just an issue with windows so wanted to check here first.
Thanks

If you're hearing the splash noise, it boots. No issue with GRUB.
