how to change default os to be winxp and not linux9.0...which i have.

[Nirmal]

Hi!
Thanks for reading on the first place...I have two os in
my desktop. Whenever I start my comupter, after certain
tasks it shows the screen which gives me 10/12 seconds to
choose which os I would want to load. After those 12
seconds if no choice is made, the linux loads up by
default...i want to change that default setting to winxp.
please help.

thanks a bunch in advance.

If this is the Windows boot loader, Go to Control Panel, System, Advanced,
Startup and Recovery. You can set the default OS there. If you're using the
boot loader that comes with Linux, you'll have to consult your documentation
for that OS.
