There was a drivemap bug in 1.99 which was fixed in 2.00. Since reporter didn't leave enough information to determine whether it could be this bug and didn't respond to retest request, closing the bugreport. If you still experience the problem with 2.00~beta6 feel free to file a new bug report.

Can you try with 2.00~beta2 and/or using ntldr /bootmgr instead of chainloader +1 ?

Upgrading my Chakra distro. to use grub2 cause a very annoying situation. Linux would boot fine on my HP G60 laptop, but when I selected Windows Vista from the bootlader menu, it begins to load and then reboots most of the time. I used EasyBCD to use windows boot manager instead and Vista loads fine. Most times when I try to use Grub2 to load Vista this happens. Sometimes it goes through though. But it's really a hit and miss situation. I have Windows 7 on another laptop that functions fine with Grub Bootloader. The Bios version number of the laptop is F 3E, and the operating system is Windows Vista 32 bit. I have reinstalled the linux O.S a couple of times, uninstall and reinstall grub2. But no dice. The grub2 version is 1.99-9 on Chakra Linux (Archimedes).
