[SOLVED]Getting Windows Vista to show up on Grub

After I installed Arch the Grub list no longer shows Vista as an option to boot into.

Here is the output of my /boot/grub/menu.lst

# (0) Arch Linux
title  Arch Linux
root   (hd0,5)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz26 root=/dev/disk/by-uuid/d7ae917d-3454-4245-850a-2aae59525706 ro
initrd /boot/kernel26.img

# (1) Arch Linux
title  Arch Linux Fallback
root   (hd0,5)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz26 root=/dev/disk/by-uuid/d7ae917d-3454-4245-850a-2aae59525706 ro
initrd /boot/kernel26-fallback.img

# (2) Windows
#title Windows
#rootnoverify (hd0,0)
#makeactive
#chainloader +1
