open start menu and key “msconfig” and go to the tab boot and select your os
for xp select execute>msconfig>boot>and select your os

Don’t bother, I’ve found EasyBCD and helped me to delete unwanted entry. But many thanks anyway…..!

P.S. A start-up repair would not be any good to me, as I’ve installed Ubuntu. So I had 3 entries : Windows 7, Kubuntu and Ubuntu. I’ve uninstalled Kubuntu, but Kubuntu entry did not go away.
A start-up repair would flash away Ubuntu entry.

Ok, I knew how to do this. But I have a question : I installed and uninstalled Kubuntu. Kubuntu entry is still in the boot list and there’s no option to edit boot list (so I can delete an entry) like in XP…..
Any suggestion ?
