Err no, they certainly aren't. I knew how to tweak LILO, but that did not help me with GRUB.
Anyway, be root and open /boot/grub.conf (if the file isn't there, check where your grub.conf is).
The following worked for me:
The default should be on 0 (or whatever you want to start first - the first entry is 0, the second 1 ed). Timeout should be on 10 or so - it's in seconds. Splashimage and passwords should not be changed. The Linux entry should not be changed (assuming it works correctly).
Seeing your info, the windows setting should be the same as here. I take it you have Windows on the first partition on the drive.
If that doesn't work, you can either ask, or type 'info grub' - Grub's info pages are quite helpful with the details to fill in and on what the fields mean.
