I have learned to edit boot menu from gedit, in Linux.
It's like this, first open up terminal then type
su -c 'gedit /boot/grub/grub.conf'
After entering the root password I can edit boot menu time from changing the number on "timeout" and I can change default boot OS from changing the number on "default"(If you have a dualboot with Linux distro).

As far as I know when you install windows after Linux the memory sector on the hard disk which keeps the GRUB boot menu gets erased.
Why don't you ask it in a forum?
e.g LinuxQuestions.org
