You better have a look in disk management and see which partition is your primary boot partition. Post a screen shoot of it with the snipping tool to this thread if you like. Just because the partition is labeled D: doesn't mean its the second partition on the drive. Are you getting a screen asking you to select which windows 7 install to boot too when you boot up the PC?

Can you post a screenshot of the full screen disk management window to get a better understanding ?

We really need to see a snip of Windows disk management before we can give you the correct advice on the best way forward; there's a lot of useful information in this tutorial linked below.
