No need to guess:
grub references disks numbering from 0
grub references partitions numbering from 1
So the first partition on the first disk would be hd0,msdos1. (also
hd0,1 - doesn't matter)
The third partition on a second disk would be hd1,msdos3
So now you can create two menu entries, one for each partition: Give them
different names - like this - menuentry "Windows msdos1"

When you start the machine you will see the grub menu - It should
contain a menu (obviously) with entries for Qubes, and the two entries
you have just created.
You can press up and down keys to move up and down the entries -
Pressing enter will try to boot with the highlighted entry.
(There are instructions under the menu)
