Hi Yves, did not seem to help.....This is what the fdisk /dev/hda -l
looks like

Disk /dev/hda: 80.0 GB, 80026361856 bytes
16 heads, 63 sectors/track, 155061 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 1008 * 512 = 516096 bytes

   Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hda1 * 1 65208 32864800+ 7 HPFS/NTFS
/dev/hda2 65209 67289 1048824 83 Linux
/dev/hda3 67290 129705 31457664 83 Linux
/dev/hda4 129706 155061 12779424 82 Linux swap

This is what the /boot/grub/menu.lst looks like....

color white/blue black/light-gray
default 0
timeout 8
gfxmenu (hd0,1)/message
