Two Windows 7s?

I recently noticed that Windows 7 is a lot better than XP, but I couldn't enjoy it to full because I was afraid of running out of space (I had 4GB left out of 20GB total) and at the time of installing I didn't have any unassigned space I could give to W7.

Two weeks ago, however, I bought myself a 500GB disc and could finally free some space. I did notice that I can't, unfortunately, resize the Windows 7 system partition. I tried everything, from free programs and Windows basic partition manager to expensive ones like Partition Magic and Paragon Managers (both on a DVD of a Polish magazine I'm subscribed to). They failed to resize it, too.

So, while I was on my Windows XP partition, I deleted the Windows 7 one, made a new partition with 70GB and reinstalled Windows 7. But now I have an annoying issue - after I start my PC and get to the "Choose OS" screen, I see "Older version of Windows", that is XP, and two Windows 7 options, only one of them valid. How can I remove the faulty, deleted option?

Post your boot.ini contents.

I used this....its a user interface for changing the options at bootup. You can add/remove, change times, etc.

Appreciate it, man. It also allows changing names of the OS' so it doesn't say "Older version of Windows".

I know my problem is solved, but where do you check it? It's been a long time since I needed boot.ini.

boot.ini would be the file that EasyBCD modified for you. It's in the root directory (folder) of the OS drive/partition (usually C: ) in WinXP. I can only guess that it's in the same place in Vista (haven't looked) and 7 (don't have it).
