[SOLVED]Installed Grub on wrong Drive, How do I Fix It now?

I will try to put this as best as I can:
I've successfully installed the Grub Bootloader on my Drive which has Arch installed onto it. I however screwed up and and also installed Grub on my other drive which has Windows 7 installed onto it. I can still access it, however only if I first go to the Grub Bootloader on my Linux Drive and choose Windows from there. This means, I can't directly boot from my Drive, which has Windows installed, to Windows. Perhaps I could install the Grub Bootloader onto Windows, although I don't know to do this.
Furthermore, would the Grub be deleted if I reset Windows?

Yes, I am a total newbie and I won't blame anyone if this post gets removed.
I'm really sorry for my butchered English.

BIOS or UEFI? How did you install it, exactly?

"BIOS or UEFI?"
I'm using BIOS.
"How did you install it, exactly?"
I'm sorry to say that I'm not certain. I only know for sure that I did not do it manually.

You didn't install grub manually? How did you install it?
