Now that I've got Leopard working, how do I get Windows back?

I have two 250GB sata drives. I had to yank the one my Windows XP install was on as Window's bootloader kept on screwing up my Leopard installs. I installed Leopard on my other hard drive using the Lawless 10.5.4 AMD build with Chameleon bootloader (and partioned the HDD using the MBR scheme). Now I'm trying to get Windows to boot up as well. With both hard drives plugged in, I only have the choice of booting up the operating system on the hard drive set as master (currently OSX through the Chameleon bootloader). If I swap the sata cables, then Window's bootloader will boot up Windows XP and doesn't even see OSX. How do I get the bootloaders to cooperate? I would like to have the option to select an OS on boot as swapping sata cables is kind of a pain :) . If I set the hard drive with Windows as the master disk, can I modify Window's boot.ini file so that it will see OSX? If so how? I'm sort of clueless as I've never done this before.
