Unistall W2000 after installation of XP?

[Rosy]

Somehow I have now got W2000 and XP choice to boot from
after installing an upgrade to W2000 which stopped
working. How do I delete the old OS?

Hi,

Boot to WinXP, delete the Win2000 system folders from Windows Explorer.

Start/run msconfig, go to the boot.ini tab, click "check all boot paths". It
should offer to remove the now invalid one.

Are the Win2000 system folders easy to identify?

 

[Rick \Nutcase\ Rogers]

Hi,

Should be, are you aware of how and to what partition you installed them? If
you look at boot.ini, it should indicate which partition on which drive the
folders are located. Start/run "C:\boot.ini" and copy/paste the contents
into a reply, and we should be able to tell you where to look for them.
