Windows thinks there are 2 OS installed !!

Hi all, hope you're having a nice Christmas

(i am reusing the 1 year old drive from my old PC )

I've just finished building my PC and booted it using an old BLANK sata drive which i used to instal windows and copy the data from my old pc Sata drive in order to do a clean instal.
I have since copied all of the data to the spare drive, as well as installed window son the spare drive.
(forgetting to disconnect the old spare drive)
I installed windows on the 1 year old drive, then copied all data, re installed programs etc. and during all the restarts i never had a problem, but then on one restart a message came up during the reboot saying BOOTMGR missing (or something along those lines) so i used startup repair and all is well apart from;
NOTE i was using two drives, both with the same version of windows during this setup.
when booting the machine, after the bios messages and the post beep, i keep getting an option of two ''windows 7 (recovered)'' to choose from.
i have formatted the spare drive/removed it completely and yet i still have the option upon startup

..........Help....... please.

I'm using Windows 7 Professional 64 bit on an asus p8z68 v pro.

the old spare drive is not as good as the one from my old PC so thats why I'm re using it

thankyou!

thanks!
however, i had no 'check all boot paths' option, but there were two win7 boot options listed with 'current' next to one of them, i just deleted the one with nothing next to it.

it worked a treat, I never knew this msconfig existed! do i use this to stop things opening on startup ?
