I installed XP pro on a new to me computer that supposedly
had no OS. Now, when booting it gives a choice of XP or
Win 98. If I choose 98 it takes me to a C prompt and that
is it. I want to remove what is left over from 98 but
how? XP works normally.
 
Remove the option you no longer want from boot.ini found in the root of the
system partition. Explorer|Tools|Folder Options|View, then radio button for
"Show hidden files and folders", then uncheck the box for "Hide protected
operating system files"
