Friends help needed

It seems My hard disk has some error.
After loading the DamnSmallLinux to hdd
it has installed the GRUB which is giving
this error :

GRUB Disk Error

and its not booting.

I could install LILO to start the PC under
linux environment. But my issue is
I also need the windows environment

My hda1 is windows98 (its Pentium mmx old PC)
I need it since it has the old COM1 port.

So is there a way to install GRUB.
Or
Is there a way to boot to Windows . ?

Thanks in advance

GRUB is being writen is currpt.

I am out of station for a week so will try
