title windows
        map    (hd0,0) (hd0,4)
        map    (hd0,4) (hd0,0)
        setup  (hd0)
        rootnoverify (hd0,4)
        chainloader +1

For booting windows.

Now, I've never done this, but for the CD try:

title windows-CD
        map    (hd0,0) (hd3,0)
        map    (hd3,0) (hd0,0)
        setup  (hd3)
        rootnoverify (hd3,0)
        chainloader +1

No idea if that one will work... good luck!
