well, the code you have there should work perfectly fine..

here is what i have :

[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition" /fastdetect

and it loads perfectly, in safe mode as well..

do you know what error it gives when you can't go in safe mode?
