When ubuntu 9.1 cam out tried updating one of my 9.04 and thats when it crapped out. Got the blinking screen ect. Got my windows on hd0 to boot and decided I would do clean install of Ubuntu 9.1. I couldnt remember which partition had the Ubuntu that was now gooded up so I was going to delete my ubuntus and install new. My 2nd hd has some important info so I thought I would disconnect it while goofing with installing the 9.10
Got everything to work on the 1st hard drive fine and hooked up the second hard drive with just vista on it. Not realizing I now had grub2 i was tryikng to find menu.lst.... Figured out I had grub 2 and read some post on sudo update-grub.
It found the xp on the second hard drive but when selecting that drive to boot it gives me Error: Invalid signature Pressing any key gets me back to grub.
Current grub.cfg reads

When ubuntu 9.1 cam out tried updating one of my 9.04 and thats when it crapped out. Got the blinking screen ect. Got my windows on hd0 to boot and decided I would do clean install of Ubuntu 9.1. I couldnt remember which partition had the Ubuntu that was now gooded up so I was going to delete my ubuntus and install new. My 2nd hd has some important info so I thought I would disconnect it while goofing with installing the 9.10
Got everything to work on the 1st hard drive fine and hooked up the second hard drive with just vista on it. Not realizing I now had grub2 i was tryikng to find menu.lst.... Figured out I had grub 2 and read some post on sudo update-grub.
It found the xp on the second hard drive but when selecting that drive to boot it gives me Error: Invalid signature Pressing any key gets me back to grub.
Current grub.cfg reads
