Jared, 
  Edit your /boot/grub/grub.conf file as superuser.
default=0
timeout=5

change default to the kernel version or OS that you
want to be as your default.  

change timeout to something that you are comfortable
with.  timeout=5 that is 5 seconds for you to choose
the one that you want till the default loads.

[root@localhost olivares]# cat /boot/grub/grub.conf
# grub.conf generated by anaconda
#
# Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making
changes to this file
# NOTICE:  You have a /boot partition.  This means
that
#          all kernel and initrd paths are relative to
/boot/, eg.
#          root (hd0,1)
#          kernel /vmlinuz-version ro
root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00
#          initrd /initrd-version.img
#boot=/dev/hda
default=0
timeout=5
splashimage=(hd0,1)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
hiddenmenu
title Fedora Core (2.6.11.7)
        root (hd0,1)
        kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.11.7 ro
root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 quiet acpi=ht
        initrd /initrd-2.6.11.7.img
title Fedora Core (2.6.9-1.667)
        root (hd0,1)
        kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.9-1.667 ro
root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 quiet acpi=ht
        initrd /initrd-2.6.9-1.667.img
title windows
        rootnoverify (hd0,0)
        chainloader +1


Regards,

Antonio
