Windows 8: Choose An Operating System Won't Go Away

Hi. The Choose an operating system prompt when I boot won't go away, even if I've set it to just go into Windows 8 (the other is Ultimate Windows 7). I've also checked the start up in the control panels, it's on Windows 8. Is there a more advanced way to get rid of this prompt and just let it go into Windows 8?
Thank you in advance. Have a great sunday mass/great weekend.
God bless,
Alvin

yup
once you're in windows hit the follow keys to bring up the system information window
command + fn + esc
choose 'advanced system setttings' in the left hand column to launch the 'system properties' window
by default it will be on the 'advanced' tab..  which is good!
hit the 'settings' button in the 'Start-up and Recovery' section to option up the startup options window
I think 'Time to display recovery options' might be ticked in your case.. so untick that and hit ok..
if this still don't work.. untick the 'time to display list of operating systems' as well.

    Try starting up with your Snow Leopard DVD and see if the disk can be repaired. Once you are at the installer screen go to the Utilities Menu and choose Disk Utility and choose repair disk. You might also want to try Diskwarrior.
    Hope this helps.

  • HP Laserjet p2015d auto duplex printing with Windows 7 64 bit operating system

    I have used the HP Laserjet p2015d with Windows 7 32 bit operating system and have been able to use the AUTOMATIC DUPLEX feature of the printer without problems.
    Now, however, I have installed the 64 bit version of Windows 7 operating system and the AUTO DUPLEX does not work and is not shown as being available on the PROPERTIES menu of the printer.
    Is it possible to use the AUTO DUPLEX  feature of  the printer with Windows 7   64 bit  operating system.
    All replies welcomed!   Aaron in Calif.

    Hi Aaron,
    Make sure the Automatic Duplexing option is enabled:
    Enter Control Panel > Devices and Printers.
    Right click the printer icon, then click Printer Properties.
    Click the Device Settings tab.
    Set the Automatic Two-Sided Duplex Accessory as installed and click OK to save the change.
    Now Automatic Duplexing should become available.

    Hi,
    Regarding the issue here, please restart the computer and press F8 until you see the
    advanced boot options, select start windows normally, 
    if it starts with no problem, please check if you have the option boot from safe mode checked:
    run->type msconfig->tab boot->boot options, check if the
    safe boot is selected, if yes please uncheck it. Then restart the computer to check if this problem still exists.
    If the system needs repair, please take a look into the below WIKI article, and check the event viewer to see if any errors for further troubleshooting.:

    Hi claire.winteringham,
    If you have a 64 bit machine then there shouldn't be any problem while installing any 32-bit software.
    Try to download it with the below mentioned link :

    Hi,
    Not sure if any of you above have managed to solve your problem or not but after coming across this same problem myself today as I am currently 'sofa bound' I decided to make it my mission to find a way around it.
    Initially I did think, having ready what seemed like a million questions and people with the same problem, that the only way was to buy OS X 10.5 ... HOWEVER, no. In among all these threads I found a jewel - Download I Tunes 9.2.1 which gets rid of the download itunes 10 advert and allows you to then buy from itunes again :-)  I am now one very happy lady.
    I apologise to all those that dont have older versions of OS X that maybe wont support even this upgrade but certainly for those like me with just 4yr old lap tops at least it means it not longer means buying a new one.
    Hope this helps son very frustrated people like myself - so much for apple support!
