I have the same drive setup with windows XP on hdc1
I set it up a while ago, but I seem to recall reading that windows had 
issues booting when its not on the first drive.  So you make it think it is.

Anyway, relevant portion of my working grub.conf:

title=Windows
map (hd0) (hd1)
map (hd1) (hd0)
rootnoverify (hd1,0)
chainloader +1
