While trying to fix other issues, I have accidently installed 2 copies of Win
XP Home edition. How can I get rid of the extra one? I don't want to re-format the drive, just get rid of the uneeded second version of WinXP. Thanks in advance, LSmith |

You sign in to the one you want to keep, open Explorer and delete all
folders holding the second, unwanted installation, edit boot.ini to remove the deleted one. You're good.
