Built a new PC last week, so far so good. In the midst of a large number of
problems I won't bother you with I at one stage threw up my hands and started
a new install of Windows XP Pro to overwrite the old. However as I was
watching it plod along (having just got to (but not started) the hard disk
partitioning bit), an idea occurred to me on how to solve the problem I was
having. So I halted the install, went back into the installed xp pro and was
sucessful, with that particular problem anyway.
The problem is this: how do I get rid of the partial win xp installation
process?
As things are it is not a major hassle....it appears during bootup as a
choice, but I've set the default to the first sucessful install.
However...it is sucking up some hard disk space, and in particular I don't
want my boys getting curious, choosing it during the bootup, and completing
an overwrite install! Accordingly I would be much happier if it were gone,
but cannot see a method to accomplish this.
Your advice would be much appreciated.
