Its Easy!
Right click "My Computer"
Go to "Properties"
Click the "Advanced" tab
Click the "Settings" button under the "Startup and Recovery" section
Choose the OS choice you WANT to boot under the "System startup" section's "Default
operating system"
Uncheck the "Time to display list of operating systems" box
Click "Ok"
Your Done!, Next time you reboot, it wont give you that annoying OS choice menu!
IF you chose the wrong one, dont panic, you can just hit F8 in the bootup process
and there is an option to select os choices.
