I recently upgraded from Windows Vista to Windows 7 Home Premium. After installing Windows 7, I was showing twoentries on the boot menu forWindows 7, including the Windows 7 RC that I had on a separate partition from Vista. I was trying to fix a problem I had with Windows Media Center in Windows 7 after upgrading from Vista.I went into msconfig.exe and it showed the startup selection as Selective Startup. I clicked Normal Startup and upon reboot the Windows 7 which was showing in the boot menu suddenly began showing as Microsoft Windows Vista. In addition, the 10 seconds to make a selection had changed to 5. I know how to change the time, but how do I edit the boot menu to says Windows 7, as it should be.I also had entered Safe Mode to check some things regarding the problem I was having with Windows Media Center. I am not sure which caused the issue and I'm not sure why either would,but either changing the startup selection in msconfig.exe to Normal Startup or entering safe mode in Windows 7 caused the boot menu to revert back to Microsoft Windows Vista. Any help with this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Right click your Desktop's Computer icon->Properties->Advanced Systam Settings->Startup & Rec Settings: Here you can vary startup OS and Time of multi boot display. If you ever install W 7 32 & W7 64 and multi boot shows 2 "Windows 7" selections you can change variable in Registry to Windows 7 ??Bit. Not an important piece of information.

One of the easiest ways to edit boot entries is to use a free program you can download called EasyBCD.If you use msconfig.exe to make changes, those are only temporary as you have found out.

Proton2,Thank you for your help. The EasyBCD program is very good. I was able to change the name andthe order listed on the boot menu.
