Hi,
On your Desktop Right Click My Computer and Select Properties from the
drop
down list.
On the System Properties click on Advanced Tab then on Start up and
recovery.
On startup and Recovery window, under system startup option click on the
Edit button and there you will have the boot.ini you can edit or remove
the
line for the operating system you don't want.
****Note***** to be sure you will not delete the right line for the
operating system you want to keep do the following:
When you boot up and offered the boot option write down the line which you
always log on with on a piece of paper also you can safe the boot.ini with
another name as a recovery copy before editing, if you done the procedure
wrong.
When logged in do the above and note the line or compare the line on the
piece of paper and the one on the boot.ini and remove the one doesn't
match.
Your boot.ini will looks like this after editing:
[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP
Professional" /fastdetect /NoExecute=OptIn
Another; open a run command and type in: msconfig click [OK]
On the System Configuration window click on Boot.ini Tab, there click on
Check all Root paths and you can edit there.
HTH.
Let us know.
