Hi abolkog - Welcome to w7forums

Try using EasyBCD 1.7.2. It's easy to use and free.

abolkog, welcome to the forum! Did you create a separate partition for Fedora? And when you deleted the Fedora partition, did you format it as NTFS and spread Windows 7 back across it? I had a similar problem happen in XP Pro. Go to System Properties, click Advanced, click Startup & Recovery (settings), your boot order will be there. There will be a notepad. You will have to edit Fedora off the list, it will ask you to confirm, click Yes. It will no longer be on your boot menu. Hope this helps, if you need further help, please post.

I was digging through the computer while you two were solving it the easy way. Thanks for the link, Clifford! I can use that one, too.

abolkog, glad things worked out for you. I haven't had to do this in Windows 7, but didn't think it would be a lot of difference. Anytime you need assistance, come back.

Never thought of that, I thought I could setup fedora and win7 on the same partition, now I understand...

Well Bcdedit.exe was a good thing you chose to use but here i see EasyBcd is really easy. Recovering bootloader and removing extra entries is just a few click away

For some reason or the other, Fedora 12 wouldn't install on my laptop. I wanted to take it for a spin, but it wouldn't boot. Same deal with Slackware. Wouldn't boot. I know how to burn ISO files, there's nothing wrong with my drive, either. I've burned and used many Linux ISO's with success, but not Fedora or Slackware. Anyway, I found my choice of a Linux OS in Mint 8 (64 bit). It is a true 64 bit OS, browser and all. That's how I know there is a difference between 32 and 64 bit browsers. The 64 bit had a much better screen, and downloaded faster, too. But by no means would I want to exclusively want to use Linux over Microsoft. They both have their merits, but Windows wins the overall battle between the two. With Windows 7, downloads are far easier to apply, there's more games (for those who do so), and you have professional support, which to me is a giant plus. Mint 8, on the other hand, offers lighting fast downloading, web pages are there as soon as you click (provided you have adequate RAM), and don't need to add a lot of security features (malware scanners and the like). So therefore, I have the best of both worlds.
