Default How do I get rid off dual (triple) boot?

Hi, I have 3 partitions, one for 7, one for XP and one for Ubuntu.

I haven't used XP in a long while so I decided I want to stick to 7.
Now, if I format or erase everything in the XP partition from 7, would that fuck up in any way my boot?
I've hidden the prompt to chose the windows OS, it goes straight to 7 by default now, but if I delete the XP partition content, would it affect the boot in any way?

On a side note, the first prompt that shows up when I turn my pc on is ubuntu or windows, if I decide to delete ubuntu too and use up that disk space, should I do something in particular or can I just format and add that space to one of my partitions without fucking up the initial boot?

All the help is appreciated, thanks!!

if you get rid of ubuntu and stick with just 7. then you should install M$ boot loader. should be able to be done with the recovery disc.

cool, thanks, the ubuntu partition will stay for a little while I guess.

just to be sure, I should be ok formatting the XP partition and it would go straight to 7 no questions asked, right?

It will still ask you. You need to change 7's bootloader via bcdedit and set the wait time to 0, delete the XP entry, and make 7 default
