Windows 7 has disappeared from boot after installing Fedora 20
I know this is kind of a repeated question, but I've been unable to find any solution. After a clean install of windows 7, I shrinked its partition to make some space to install Fedora. After shrinking the partition, Windows 7 continued booting as usual. After installing Fedora 20 on the free space, though, the Windows 7 option does not appear in GRUB. What's more weird, my computer came with a version of FreeDOS, which does appear in GRUB.
My fdisk -l output is as follows:

Looking for information in Google, I have tried to create a 15_Windows file in /etc/grub.d with the text:
#! /bin/sh -e
echo "Adding Windows" >&2
cat << EOF
menuentry "Windows" {
set root=(hd0,2)
chainloader +1
}
EOF
where I've been changing 'set root=(hd0,2)' with 'set root=(hd0,msdos2)' and 'set root='hd0,msdos2', because when in GRUB I type ls, that's the syntax used for the partitions.
After doing so, I've runned 'sudo grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub2.cfg' to load the changes.
Nothing has worked.
Windows 7 is being booted in BIOS mode, not in UEFI mode.
Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
