    Windows 7 MBR problem!


    Hi guys,
    So I want to try windows 10 and downloaded it onto a dvd, then partitioned my current HDD that has windows 7, made the logical partition into primary and put the windows 10 on it. Then it started giving me problems like mouse/keyboard didn't work as windows started. I realized what I did was a mistake and i did a format of the primary drive F with windows 10 on it to go back to windows 7 and forget about 10.
    Now my problem is windows bootloader keeps asking me if I want to boot into 7 or 10. If i press 7 everything works but if I press 10, it goes into a bootloop since all the files are deleted.

    My question is how can i remove windows 10 from the option and just have it boot straight into windows 7 like I had before I started this. I want to delete all the boot files related to windows 10.
    Sorry about long paragraph, I wanted to explain everything I did.
    Thanks for your help and patience in reading
    Much Appreciated

    EasyBCD has a nice GUI and you can fix your problem in 10 seconds:

    -Download and install it (click "Register" on the EasyBCD's non-commercial version and then click "Download" button on the next page).
    -Launch EasyBCD > Edit Boot Menu > click on Windows 10 entry and then choose Delete and confirm.

    Try this:

    Control Panel > System > Advanced system settings > Startup and Recovery > un-tick "Time to display list of operating systems" > OK.
