Hello everyone. I just got a new R9 295X2 8 gig video card and I decided to re-install windows fresh. I did what everyone well most people do and restarted my pc and used the boot menu to install a clean install of Windows 8.1. I got a problem though and it is quite annoying. I used my Windows 8.1 64 bit cd and installed windows, but every time I turn my PC on it tells me what windows to open. I have 2 options windows 8.1 or windows 7. It is weird though since I have never had windows 7 or the cd's for it so why is there that option? I never had this problem before. Usually I would turn my PC on and it will go straight to the log in screen. Now every time I turn it on I have to choose and it is annoying. Thank you for reading. I really look forward to your replies. Your assistance is highly appreciated. :)

When I choose the windows 7 option it says windows failed to start. It is a black screen with all white writing. Why would it give me an option to choose windows 7 when it doesn't even work? I just want to be able to turn my PC on and for it to go straight to the log in screen. Not have to worry about choosing an option every time I turn my PC on.
