How to Change GRUB Config to Boot Xp First

How do I change my GRUB config file so that XP boots first? Here is a copy of my GRUB config file:

# grub.conf generated by anaconda
#
# Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file
# NOTICE: You have a /boot partition. This means that
# all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /boot/, eg.
# root (hd0,1)
# kernel /vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00
# initrd /initrd-version.img
#boot=/dev/hda
default=1
timeout=15
splashimage=(hd0,1)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
hiddenmenu

title Fedora Core (2.6.20-1.2952.fc6debug)
root (hd0,1)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.20-1.2952.fc6debug ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 rhgb quiet
initrd /initrd-2.6.20-1.2952.fc6debug.img
title Fedora Core (2.6.20-1.2952.fc6)
root (hd0,1)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.20-1.2952.fc6 ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 rhgb quiet
initrd /initrd-2.6.20-1.2952.fc6.img
title Fedora Core (2.6.20-1.2948.fc6)
root (hd0,1)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.20-1.2948.fc6 ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 rhgb quiet
initrd /initrd-2.6.20-1.2948.fc6.img
title Windows XP Professional
rootnoverify (hd0,0)
chainloader +1


Thanks

change the "default=1" line to "default=3" it counts from 0, so the make the fourth entry boot first it should be 3
