I recently installed Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. Now when I start the computer I am presented with the new boot options where I can choose whether I want to boot into Windows or Ubuntu. I would like to keep this menu but how can I move Windows Vista to the top of the list?

METHOD 1:
You can use a GUI tool called grub-customizer
and it can be installed by typing following commans
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:danielrichter2007/grub-customizer
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install grub-customizer
OR
METHOD 2:
If you have Windows in parallel than you can install a program called "Easy bcd" or "bcd editor"(both are same). A GUI version is available for this too.

I selected the Windows entry/line from the tab "List Configuration" and then clicked the Up button on the toolbar repeatedly until ti was on top of Ubuntu entry.– SamirJul 21, 2013 at 13:01

I'm assuming that you're on Linux doing these modifications...so now change the order OS(keep ur choice on top) and u can also delete the other old kernel entires(but don'. Forget to keep the latest one in list and for safety also seethe recovery mode option of that kernel too)– ashishJul 22, 2013 at 6:18
