No it is windows UEFI 64bit on a UEFI 64bit platform
it doesn't matter anyway because even if I try to boot only Wimboot EFI from
Grub2 EFI without parameters I also get a blackscreen.
I mean:
menuentry "Windows 7" {
linux /boot/wimboot/wimboot
}
I can't get linux16 to work in EFI, can I?

Wait, are you trying to run Windows UEFI x64 on UEFI x32 (to be precise
ia32) platform? It seems to me that such configs are not supported.
Additionally, paths above show that you are trying to use legacy BIOS stuff.
It will not run on UEFI platforms. I think that you should use more or less
something like that (+/- /amd64 part):
- /amd64/boot/boot.sdi,
- /amd64/efi/microsoft/boot/bcd,
- /amd64/efi/boot/bootx64.efi
- /amd64/winpe.wim.
So, more or less there is a chance that the issue is not related to GRUB2.
Daniel
