I picked up a harddrive, tossed it into a box, and plugged it into a usb port. I installed Arch with lilo the first time and messed up the lilo config file, so, i reinstalled arch and set up GRUB
the file is as follows
timeout 5
defult 0
color light - blue/black light - cyan/blue
# (0) Arch Linux
title Arch Linux
root (hd1,0)
kernel /vmlinuz26 root=/dev/sdb3 ro
initrd /kernel26.img
# (1) ArchLinux
title Arch Linux Fallback
root(hd1,0)
kernel /vmlinuz26 root=/dev/sdb3 ro
initrd /kernel26 - fallback.img
# (1) Windows
rootnoverify (hd0,0)
makeactive
chainloader +1
Now when i boot into windows, it boots me into the Diagnostics. When I exit out of the screen it restarts back to Grub loader where it will do the same thing. Can someone please help me. Thanks

yours doesn't have a title... mine boots fine
My old one had rootnoverify and still booted fine
(thats what Ubuntu created... I just tried it out and forgot to stop it installing GRUB again)

I had a title just forgot to put it down in the post. I had a friend over and we figured it out. I had the hard drive connected to a usb, but it wasn't reading it as a usb connection but as an internal hard drive, therefore the number of the hd was off. With the new numbering the hd(prtition) I had specified was then actually the recovery, so i would bootinto there every time. I have another problem that ill probally post after i scan through the forum. Thank you for your input though, i appricate it.
