I recently installed a new partition on my computer
dividing the drive into two parts. Because I was pressed
for time, I only installed the partition on the first
half of the drive and intended to return to set the
partition on the second part at a later time. When I
finaly set the second partition, I used the Win XP
install disk. It would not let me cancel out of the
install and I now have to Win XP configurations. I
thought it would just be a matter of reformatting the
second partition, but windows has set that particular
configurationm as the default and returned a failure
message due to missing files. Is there a way to delete
the second occurance of windows XP and removuving it from
the boot record to eliminate the error messages. Any help
is welcome. Thank you.
 
Kevin, why don't you just start over. Boot from the CD and you can delete
and create partitions and format.
