Hi
since i installed SSD and Bootcamp for my Macbook Pro it will always ask me which drive to boot into when i start my computer... Before i installed the SSD it will boot into whatever OS i had last.. This is annoying and i just want it to boot into the last operating system i used.. now it will automatically go into Boot Menu without me holding the option key.. how do i cancel that?

Regards

System Preferences -> Startup Disk

See what is selected there. Should be able to select the disk you want to boot up on by default.

yes it selected as OS X but it will still load the Boot Menu every time o restart or start the computer i have to select OSX or Win7 and hit enter before it actually boots into the OS.. very annoying since its delaying my boot-time :(
 
Resetting the PRAM is a PPC Mac trick, not an Intel one. The guide you want for Intel Macs is Resetting the SMU.

ah, good call. I've never had to do it personally so it's always a last resort for me when recommending it. thanks for the correction.

All out of ideas here... I'd suggest heading over to the Apple Support Forums (or call AppleCare if you have it) and post the same question, but also include all of the things you've tried to do to fix it. Hopefully someone can chime in with a working answer.
