    you do press esc repeatedly when the splash screen happens to get the boot device menu
    you choose recover to whole hd if you dont want partitions

    Like I said many times, I recommend 2 partitions, one for Windows one for Data. I won't repeat the reasons here, but it's a much better setup.
