Need to delete from dual boot menu

L

I recently backed up my C drive onto my new 1TByte external drive so I could
play with my C drive's partitioning to regain some free space. I did manage
to reinstall my Windows XP on the C drive and resize the C drive partition
into one large 160 GB drive, but I still have the dual boot menu come up when
I reboot. Any advice on how to delete one of the entries? Thanks.

Start/Run/msconfig (this open the System Configuration Utility.
Select the BOOT.INI tab
Click on the 'Check All Boot Paths' button.

If Msconfig finds an invalid path (you indicated you have two)
it will ask you to delete the invalid path.

JS,

Thanks for the tip, and after I read it, I remembered the same thing myself!
