Boot Manager always displaying on boot-up and only have Vista Prem

I have a fairly new PC that came pre-loaded with Vista Home Premium, so it
has never had another operating system loaded onto the hard disk.

All was well until about two weeks ago when, upon starting the PC resulted
in the Windows Boot Manger displaying everytime. The resulting boot manager
only gives Vista as an operating system to choose, so you just have to hit
enter to accept and the PC boots up Vista OK.

I have loaded EasyBCD and all looks ok, here is a print out: -

Click on the blue Vista start button and in the "Start Search" box
type: MSCONFIG. Click on the msconfig icon when it appears
and then click on the Boot tab. Uncheck any checked boxes,
then click Apply.

Hi Lyndd,

Check to make sure that step 6 is unchecked in Method One of this
tutorial. It shoud turn off the boot manager screen at bootup for you.
