Cleaning boot screen of extraneous and deleted operating system?

I use ubuntu and windows operating systems. I had a ubuntu 7.10, which I have deleted, and I would like to delete ubuntu from the boot screen. How can I change the boot screen ( displayed after turning on computer) to display windows and the recently installed version of ubuntu only? I do not want windows, ubuntu 7.10, and ubuntu 8.10 to be on the boot screen.Cleaning boot screen of extraneous and deleted operating system?

On top you have Default Operating System:

On Standard XP Professional OS should look like this

[boot loader]

redirect=com1

redirectbaudrate=115200

timeout=0

default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partiti?br>
[operating systems]

multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WI?Windows XP Professional'; /fastdetect /NoExecute=OptIn
