I think that you can get grub separatly to install under windows.  Grub
will allow you to boot windows and any BSD (and of course any Linux).
Perhaps that will help.  

Of course, have complete backups since if you mess up your bootloader,
you won't be able to boot a rescue CD/USB.

Basically, your problem is that you need a smarter bootloader.
