Hi Dave,

Thank You Very Much. I thought it was a Cmd or registry setting.

Or you can just use ControlPanel/System/ Advanced Settings/start up

Hi, Doug.

Congratulations on getting the hard part done! ;<)

Others have told you two ways to change the time to select OSes. There's a
3rd way for those who are comfy at the "DOS" prompt: In an
Administrator:Command Prompt window, just type:
BCDEdit /timeout 5

(Change the "5" to the number of seconds delay that you would like, of
course.)

BCDEdit.exe is like many old DOS commands and it intimidates many users.
But when used properly, it gives us a lot of control over our multi-boot
setup. There are a couple of 3rd-party apps to make the job easier but I
don't recall their names just now.
