Question; Startup problem

[exgi]

Friends, I have been getting a black srceen at start up asking me to;
Please select the operating system to start
Microsoft Windows XP Pro
(Backup line) Microsoft Windows XP Pro
I cant figure out how to get it to boot without this screen showing at
startup, it acts like it wants me to select an operating system,...but
Im only running one,...Win XP Pro.
Can anyone teach me how to sqaure this away?
Thanks for your time and help !

Hello,

Somehow your boot.ini file has been changed, just pick the one that says
"Windows XP Professional".

Start | Run | Type: msconfig | OK |
Boot.ini tab | Check All Boot Paths button |
A dialog box will open detailing the location of any invalid operating
system locations | Confirm you want to remove the entry and reboot

[[Check All Boot Paths - This button will check the boot paths for all
operating systems listed in the BOOT.INI to ensure they point to a valid
operating system. ]]
