I have Windows 7 and Windows 8 Dual booted on my machine. I want to have win 7 as the default so the the legacy bootloader is needed to boot win 7, but what I can't understand is why the bootloader timeout has disappeared and the system waits until I make a choice. I have checked with bcdedit and the timeout is correctly set at 5 seconds, but when I boot the timeout does not appear.
Have tried repairing with Windows 7 boot disk which gives me back the timeout but then Windows 8 can't boot if selected. Very frustrating. Has anyone else come across this?
