Hello. I seem to have two occurences of 2000 on a '99
deskpro and was wondering how, it possible, I could delete
the shell I'm not using. Thanks for your time.

Click to expand...

- Boot your machine into the version of Win2000 that you
wish to keep.
- Start a Command Prompt
- Run this command:
echo %SystemRoot%
- Make a note of the screen output. This is your current
Win2000 folder. You must keep it.
- Using "My Computer", identify the other folder where
Win2000 is installed. It could be D:\WinNT.
- Rename it to "WinNT.old" (for example)
- If all is well, delete this folder after a week.
- Unhide & edit the file c:\boot.ini
- Delete the lines that refer to the extra Windows folder.
