I don't think windows will boot from a slave drive. The order you should install windows on your primary drive then install RH. The reason that you should install RH second is that windows will overwrite any OS boot loader in the MBR. It has no respect. I don't see how you could have installed windows on a slave drive unless you made it master installed and then made it a slave drive. Anyhow that ain't going to work.
