Hi, welcome to the forums

If you click then type msconfig and press enter, click the 'Boot' tab and see if the other OS is showing up.

   Note

The image is just for reference, I have only the 1 OS installed

I could see only one line current OS.

Did you perform a straight install over the top of the existing Windows 7?

No, i have selected another drive partion for installation.

Install EasyBCD 2.0 and add the other OS on Add OS tab.
