Chainload to Windows on IDE from SCSI?

First of all I'm not new to grub. However, I'm having trouble with
this setup. I have my Windows partition on my IDE drive and my linux
partition on my SCSI drive.

I want to use grub to select between the 2 O/S's. Fairly
straightforward but at the moment I can only do it by going into the
BIOs and selecting boot from SCSI or boot from IDE.

For testing I use the grub commandline; `setup (hd0,0)` and `boot`. I
have worked though every single hd combination; hd0-5,0-5 and tried to
specify it to chainload to that drive.

All I need is to see a working menu.lst for chainload to IDE from SCSI
and I'll be fine.

Here's my fdisk -l with operating systems highlighted. hda1 is
Windows, sda1 is linux.
