Can't get rid of the dual-boot option on start-up - any thoughts?
I've been finding the answers to all my problems on these forums, but I wanted to double-check the proceedings before I do anything drastic.
Pic of Disk Manager + Easy BCD
Essentially I installed Win7 to a 2TB HDD because I thought I would have to update the firmware on my SSD drive before installing windows there, but it turned out the SSD was already up to date. So I installed Win7 on the SSD, and in the process I formatted the 2TB drive. However, the 100mb "System Reserved" partition remained and I've been a bit apprehensive about getting rid of it in case it's still needed.
The problem is that when I boot I get a screen asking me to select between two versions of Windows 7, but obviously only one of them works. I've tried EasyBCD but it only shows one OS installed (which is true), and changing the count-down time option doesn't make any difference.
Any thoughts on how to remove the dual-boot option? Can I just delete the Reserved Partition and everything will be fine? I've checked in the BIOS and the only disk in the boot list is the SSD.
Many thanks,
Dan
