A couple things that might be issue and possible fix.
The newer boot generally just boots to the default boot kernel
without showing the grub menu. Generally pressing the ESC key
after boot starts will have it show the grub boot menu.
Second, the latest released grub2 has an issue with windows ntfs
regular partitions, and doesn't create grub menu entries. Works
with UEFI windows thou.
There is an updated version of grub2 in updates-testing repo, and
atleast on my two notebooks that have windows 7, the grub2 in
updates-testing, did get the boot menu to have the windows 7 boot
option.
Hope that might help.
