Windows 2000 setup

M

I recently reloaded Windows 2000 from a CD, and my
computer is working fine. However, everytime I start my
comuter, I am presented with a choice of starting Windows
from the hard drive or the Windows Setup (although Windows
2000 CD is no long in my CD-ROM drive). If I forget to
choose to start windows from the HD, the computer starts
from the setup and I get a blue screen and have to restart
the computer. How do I get rid of the windows setup choice.
Thanks.

First; Control Panel|System|Advanced|Startup and Recovery, choose the
correct System Startup option as default, then remove the option you no
longer want from boot.ini found in the root of the system partition.
Explorer|Tools|Folder Options|View, then radio button for "Show hidden files
and folders", then uncheck the box for "Hide protected operating system
files"
