In a windows 8.1 pro installation on an ASRock Extreme6 motherboard, my uefi/bios boot screen lists two different 'windows boot manager' entries under boot options. One of these is good (when top priority, boot goes nicely) and I want to keep it; the other is evil (offers to repair an installation that is fine and erases my second SSD, thanks) and I would like to destroy it or at least avoid it. How do I identify and destroy or avoid the evil boot manager?
More realistically: can I use BCDEdit to ensure the 'good' one appears first (or even better rename it)?
Some background:
I installed windows 8.1 64 on an SM951 drive (in ultraM2 slot) with 2nd SSD disconnected. When I subsequently connected a 2nd SSD, 2nd 'evil' windows boot manager appeared. (I had previously assumed this was linked with reinstalling windows from scratch on the SM951 drive after I broke the initial installation, but I now doubt that is relevant).
With 2nd SSD disconnected, only one windows boot manager shows in the UEFI boot options.
With both SSD connected, two windows boot managers show in the uefi boot options, but
BCEDIT only shows one boot manager, and a boot loader (see image below).
I tried resetting the cmos and removing the cmos battery - no joy.
Any help much appreciated.
