Very Simple, just use lilo.

You must install Windows first (if it is installed after Debian it will
wipe the MBR (master boot record).

Then just edit /etc/lilo.conf and add something like:

other=/dev/hda3
  label="Windows"

(change hda3 to whatever your windows partition is)

Don't forget to run lilo when you've edited the config file!

That should do it.
