I have a sony netbook and i reformat it using a bootable USB flash disk because i didn't have any external optical drive to be use. The re formatting was successful and i installed the windows xp pro OS. After that i reset the netbook but i observed that it didn't proceed to windows right away. It first display this two choices

Microsoft Windows XP Professional
USB Repair Not to Start Microsoft Windows XP Professional

If i select the first and press the enter key that the time it will load the windows xp. Or i will wait for 30seconds before it will proceed to widows xp.

How can i directly proceed to windows XP and eliminate that two choice during booting process?

please help

Welcome to the forums

If you run "msconfig" and go to the boot menu, you should be able to tweak your startup options there. You can alter the timeout (from 30 seconds), set a default option and remove items from that list.

Go to run, type "msconfig" and go to the boot menu. You can set a default option and remove items from the list.
