I set up a Windows partition and installed Win 7 using Boot Camp. Everthing was fine for a while, until Win 7 did an update. Since then, my Mac Pro insists on booting into Windows upon power on. Also, the Windows installation appears to corrupt itself spontaneously. Is there a "hidden partition" that's at fault here? Can this problem be fixed without having to reinstall Windows? Thanks!
Mac Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.8)
To boot into OSX:
Reboot and hold the option (alt) key down, when the boot manager loads select OSX
To make it permanent:
Go to Apple>System Preferences>Startup Disk and make your choice.

Thanks, Csound1! That did help. Here's an interesting note: the problem was caused by a Win 7 patch that went wrong. I had to restore the Windows partition from a previous image to make it stop!
