I did that. Okay, (I have to do this from Memory because i haven't got Linux booted up).
BUT you go to Control Center, then.....boot. Then you click on something in there, and it will have a variety of options, and it will say default or boot up or something. Then you have a selection of the different boot up modes you can do. You select the one that is selected as default (it will have (default) next to it) and select properties, and unselect the thing that makes it be default. THEN you select Windows (on my system it is called NT) and select properties and check the default button. and then press okay, and apply and all sorts of confirmation buttons. Hope this helps, if it doesn't I'm sure ANYONE can provide a more thorough description.
