Chuck, it's actually right there.

If you click on "Reboot" and hold the mouse button, the options of your initial boot screen (i.e. the items of your /boot/grub/menu.lst) will appear and you can then pull the mouse cursor to your Windows option and release there.

Sheesh, sorry for that, Chuck  ::)

I only looked at the last unread posts and assumed you were using KDE.

Note to self: don't assume, just read carefully!
