as root:
make a backup copy of /etc/lilo.conf by doing:
cp /etc/lilo.conf /etc/lilo.conf.backup
just in case.

edit lilo.conf and you can add your windows boot then save lilo.conf and run:
lilo

it should output something like: 

Added linux *
Added linux-nonfb
Added failsafe
Added windows
Added floppy

just as a guideline, my windows entry looks like this:

other=/dev/hda1
        label="windows"
        table=/dev/hda
