Try booting off your FC1 install CD as a rescue disk (type 'linux
rescue' at the boot prompt. Then once you're booted into linux, you can
chroot to your hard drive (# chroot /mnt/sysimage/) and run grub-install

I'm reciting from memory, so the details might not be totally accurate,
but it's relatively easy to figure out. Anyway, once you're able to boot
back into linux, you can edit /etc/grub.conf and add entries for WinME
or whatever else.
