Official Windows 7 from Microsoft unmodified, i.e. not some preinstalled
OEM Version does clearly not use GRUB4DOS nor plain GRUB Legacy nor GRUB
2.
They still use bootmgr which they introduced with Vista, which is
basically though the old ntldr from NT4/2000/XP just a bit modified.

GRUB4DOS by the way is just a fork of GRUB and not made by us neither
supported on this list.
