the simple way is to download and install EasyBCD. it's free and quite straight-forward to use.

In the Windows start menu type msconfig to set the timeout, you can also set the default OS to auto-boot here; regarding changing the boot menu entry name, if you want to learn something have a look at this tutorial at the link below; be sure to post back with any further questions you may have and to keep us informed.
