Are you referring to two boot.ini entries for Windows XP??

Open the Run dialog box from the Start Menu and type:

msconfig

Go to the Boot.ini tab and "Check all Boot Paths". This may remove the
invalid Boot Path.

Also you could read this KB article and figure out which boot path to
delete.

POST (Power On Self Test) is performed by the system BIOS (Basic Input
Output System) well before an OS (Operating System) is invoked. The last
step of a POST is, indeed, to seek a boot loader.
Please state clearly what is occurring.
