If you are running WinXP Pro go to:
Control Panel,
System,
Advanced,
Startup and Recovery > Settings,
select your OS that you want to load automatically in the 'Default operating
system',
remove the 1st check box: "Time to display list of operationg systems",
OK,
restart.

It is actually from XP's dual boot facility.

Go to Control Panel - System - Advanced, In Startup and Error recovery
click Settings, then click Edit which loads the boot.ini file into
Notepad. There will be two lines in the [Operating Systems] section;
delete the unwanted one, and File - Save.
