    What are you dual booting with ?

    How did you install Joli OS ? Separate hard drive ?

    joli os and windows 7 both on same hdd.
    not sure if it uses grub but there is a preboot up choice of joli os or windows 7 which defaults to joli os if you are too slow to choose

    Sounds like a Grub type loader to me...

    I'd run the removal routine (for JoliOS) ...and then fix the MBR.
