    It's still in the same place as XP, Control panel->System->Advanced system settings->Start up and Recovery.
    Or you can use EasyBCD...

    Hello to all again, I have successfully installed a 64-bit OS and making it dual-boot with my old 32-bit OS.

    I would like to ask, how can I change the name of the OS appeared when I am in my boot manager where I will be given 26 seconds to choose to boot into which OS. Bother appeared as: 'Windows 7' so, it is quite confusing for me to choose. Is there a way to change the name like into: 'Windows 7 32-bit' & Windows 7 64-bit' rather than just, 'Windows 7'.
    I remembered XP day where I can change the name using msconfig but I can't seems to find it now.

    Sorry for the trouble again!

    Hi all, I'm back with some questions regarding my new Windows 7, 64-bit.
    I have noticed that certain things is different from my previous 32-bit settings and is checking if that is alright.

    1.) Java no longer will auto-update?
    2.) When I install Microsoft Office 2007, I usually have Office Groove added to my context menu but now, I don't get it.

    They are not that important but just checking.

    Sorry and thanks!
