    Hello mamdouhbg, and welcome to Windows Seven Forums. This is the right place for Windows 7 fans like us!

    It sound like you have two issues. The first issue is easily fixed by editing the "boot menu". There you can change "windows 7 ultimate (recovered)" to what ever you want to see. The Windows 7 tool for that is "BCDedit". Here is a tutorial for using it:

    BCDEDIT - How to Use

    There are other "third party" utilities available to edit the boot code like EasyBCD.

    I found Vistabootpro, or just BootPro now, very easy to use and well worth the small fee of $10.

    The second issue requires more information. How did you install 7? Did you use a DVD? Did you install the RC, build 7100? or did you install the RTM, build 7600? or something else? Did you have problems installing that required a "recovery"?

    Please post back with more info to pursue this issue further.

    Happy surfing!

I have a bit of a puzzle, and I don't know whether to blame the motherboard maker, Microsoft, or -- this is a really distant third choice, obviously -- myself. (That being said, UEFIs and GPT drives are new to me, so that distant third choice might not be as distant as I'd hoped.) I recently set...

Hi guys, I recently installed both 64 and 32 bit versions of Windows 7 on two separate hard drives. However, I am not getting the 32 bit system displayed on the boot menu, making it difficult to choose which system I wish to boot. The only way to access the other system is through motherboard...
I left my computer asleep. When I awoke it, it froze up, so I restarted it and it told me I had a disk boot failure, insert boot disk. If I reboot, and press f8 to get a boot menu from the bios, I can select the drive that has windows on it. If I do not intervene beyond this, it will boot to...
