I installed Windows 7 on my C drive and Windows 8 on my E drive.. For some reason I don't want to use windows 8 anymore.. So I decided to format E drive.. But still the option to choose windows 8 appears during startup..I know how to remove that option from startup, but all I want is to uninstall it completely... Can you help?
