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.
