    use the up and down keys to highlight an entsy. press ENTER or 'b' to bnot.
    press 'e' to edit the commands before booting, or 'c' for a command-line.

    neftizzy, do you have a valid Windows 7 license that you can install? Apparently there is a conflict between your Linux (previous?) install and the Windows 7 install.
