boot.ini

I recently installed windows 2000 professional, but it somehow become part of a dual boot with windows 98. I followed some instructions to get rid of the win98, but I did not understand what to do with boot.ini. Will someone please tell me what to delete? Here is what boot.ini looks like in wordpad:

[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINNT
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINNT="Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional" /fastdetect
C:\ = "Microsoft Windows"

Thanks a lot,
Todd

Make it like so:

[boot loader]
timeout=0
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINNT
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINNT="Microsoft Windows 2000
Professional" /fastdetect
