Arch & GRUB + Multiple Windows Instalations

My situation is a bit untypical. Besides Arch, I have two Windows instalations on the disk. As for now, while booting, GRUB asks to choose between Arch and Windows. If I choose Windows, I will see another screen asking me which installation to run (Win1 or Win2), this time provided by NT Boot Loader. Is it possible to add all of them to GRUB list and get rid of NT Boot Loader ?

Win1 is on /dev/sda1
Win2 on /dev/sda2
Arch on /dev/sda5

In GRUB's menu.lst, in Windows section, I have selected hd(0,0) as the boot disk.

Re: Arch & GRUB + Multiple Windows Instalations

Add this to menu.lst:
# (1) Windows
title Windows
rootnoverify (hd0,1)
makeactive
chainloader +1

If it boots directly into your second windows installation you can remove the boot entry for win2 out of the boot config of your win1 (run msconfig on win1).
