Strange dual boot problem ?

I installed successfully lion and chimera (with latest [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url]) on a windows

7 notebook (MBR). I resized windows 7 partition beforehand to make space for mac

partition. After reboot if I try to boot windows, it hangs on Classpnp.sys

(generic Library of Storage Class Drivers for disks et al.). Mac OS boots always

normal. If I refresh partition table from bootable windows recovery DVD I can

boot Windows 7 from Chimera again. As soon I boot Mac OS the problem is there again. It seems like MAC OSX/chimera does something to MBR that renders Windows 7 unbootable. I would appreciate any hint, thanks a lot.

 

PS: Just for a test I formatted windows 7 partition and installed windows xp instead - it boots just normal from chimera/chameleon. I wonder what does MAC OS do to Windows 7 that it hangs like that ? (not even safe mode or recovery cd would boot)
