Recently, and for reasons I can't explain, Vista Boot Manager shows each time
I start my pc. I only have Vista installed, and the only option given is to
select Vista Home. I'm looking for a way to eliminate the Vista Boot Manager
stopping point so that my pc boots directly into Vista. Can anyone offer an
fix?

Thanks
Walt

Try "bcdedit /?". May have to run Command Prompt as Administrator. There
is probably some time out you can set.

Hi Walt,

Try, typing msconfig.exe into start search press enter accept the
command prompt.
This will open a new window, click on the boot tab, the new window
should look like the attached picture.

I hope this helps

I was able to eliminate the Boot Manager at start up by using the cmd line
bcdedit with" /set {bootmgr} displaybootmenu no". Thanks everyone for your
help.
