Hey guys, since i got my new mobo the other week and re installed windows 7 etc its all been fine. But when i load up the system at first it asks me what operating system i would like to load (heard this is called a dual boot) and both options are windows seven. If i clicked the first one it loads normally and the second one just takes me to a black screen. Any idea how to remove that second option so it just skips that annoying screen and loads my computer without me having to select the first windows 7 option.

Okay your mistake was you reinstalled Windows OVER Windows itself, which you did NOT need to do when you installed your new Mobo. The problem is it has a bad set of configuration in the BootStrap.

Simple answer is: Click Start, in the field type MSCONFIG, click on Boot and delete the BAD listed OS, be careful if you pick the wrong one you will hose your system.
