this is my situation.
I use windows 7 with the napalum loader. To boot I see 2 options, Windows 7 (I'll call this Option A) and Windows 7 loader (call this Option B). have to select the loader option from the boot menu, otherwise my windows fails activation.
Also, I used to have my OS partition (windows 7) on my ssd. I cloned the OS partition on a second hard drive. This allowed me to have a third option at boot (Option C) (after selecting the loader option) which drive I wanted to boot from. So basically I had to select Option A to load the loader, then either Option B or Option C to use each of the 2 drives.
This used to work fine and well. But, I have now deleted the cloned OS and removed the extra drive. Now, (after the loader option), I still see 2 Windows 7 options (Option B and C) in the boot menu, even though Option C is for the clone drive that no longer exists.

I want to remove Option C, as it's selected by default and after 30 seconds the pc restarts of course as there is no drive there anymore.

Under MSconfig boot, I only see one option (Option B, without loader, so I can't use that one as default).
Under My computer, properties, Advanced system settings, startup and recovery, settings, I only see the Option A and Option B.

Option C is nowhere, but at boot is still finds it somehow and presents it/selects as default.

HELP!!!!
