11.10 - Why can't I access Windows from Grub after installing Ubuntu?

I'm new to Ubuntu and just installed it on my HP Compaq nx5000. I dual-boot installed with Windows XP. When I boot, it goes to the grub bootloader. At the bottom of the Grub list it says boot Windows XP professional. But when I select the last one and press enter, no matter how many times I try, it either loads Ubuntu or goes back to the bootloader.
