From your description, msconfig cannot solve your problem(upon boot I get
to choose between 2 windows) and the problem is in boot.ini. You may check
below article for how to edit boot.ini.

Ok I opened a cmd prompt window and when I type msconfig.exe it says that
command is not recognized as an internal or external command. The only
reason
i ran it is because, for some reason, upon boot I get to choose between 2
windows(default) and i only ave 1 windows installation on c drive.

After copying my windows installation to a new drive, using MaxBlast
4,
and
after booting to the new drive successfully msconfig no longer works.
When
I
type it into the RUN box and press OK it does not work. I see a little
flash
on the screen like something happening in the background and then
nothing.
Can i repair msconfig somehow?

You're jumping to conclusions by assuming that msconfig.exe
does not work. I suspect something entirely different. Give
yourself some eyes so that you can see what's going on, by
running msconfig.exe from a Command Prompt. You can
start a Command Prompt by clicking Start / Run / cmd {OK}.
