Hi,
You can reinstall GRUB by booting from the rescue CD (or booting CD 1
with "linux rescue" I believe).  See this site:
http://fedoranews.org/contributors/bob_kashani/grub/

For chainloading the Windows installations, you need something like
this in your /etc/grub.conf:

title Windows
rootnoverify (hd0,0)
chainloader +1

You'll need to replace (hd0,0) with the proper drive number and
partition number of the particular Windows install you want to boot. 
If you had it working before, it will probably work again after
re-installing GRUB without changing /etc/grub.conf.  If it does not,
you'll need to provide more information (like disk layout).
