Dual Boot Options after POST Following Home to Pro Upgrade

Guest

After running an upgrade from XP Home to Pro which reported a failure after
restart but continued to a sucessful completion. I am left with two choices
after POST. Either a non-functional Continue with XP upgrade (top and hence
default) or XP Home (bottom). Selecting XP Home loads a working copy of XP
Pro. I want to be rid of the top option so it loads straight into the
non-default XP Home choice (functional Pro).

Any help gratefully received.

In Windows XP go to Start and select Run. Type ist command:
C:boot.ini

Now the boot.ini open and you can see under [Operating systems] following
line for example:

multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP
Professional" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect

So, you can edit this line for exapmple from "Microsoft Windows XP
Professional"
to "Microsoft Windows XP" Or you can delete a line for an OS you don't need.
