Question #76926 on Ubuntu changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/76926

Tom proposed the following answer:
so try

cd /boot/grub
ls
sudo cp menu.lst menu.lst.140709
ls
sudo gedit menu.lst

this time sudo wont ask for a password because the first one gives you
15 minutes free reign ;) Ok, then do the changes from

title Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition
rootnoverify (hd0,1)
savedefault
chainloader +1

and change it to

title Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition
root (hd0,1)
savedefault
makeactive
chainloader +1
