Red Hat Linux 9 is pretty old. I'd suggest you get something that may be more current and could perhaps fix your issues. They have stopped supporting it for over 5 years, and I'd suggest if you wanted to use something like it, Fedora Core would be my suggestion. If you wanted a more server oriented distribution, CentOS is binary compatible to Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Insert the CD/DVD of Red Hat Linux, after identified the CD/DVD mention the method as rescue method to repair(change) the default boot partition to windows.So it will automatically boot from Windows OS.
