XP Home Boot Menu

[Larry]

We have reinstalled XP Home Edition, now we have a boot
menu when the system boots up with two choices for XP
Home Edition? Why and how do I remove it? Thanks in
advance

Go to Start > Run and type: MSCONFIG , and hit enter.
Click on the BOOT.INI tab and then click on "Check All Boot Paths"
to delete incorrect boot paths.

If the above does not work for you, then:

Right-click MY COMPUTER and select:

Properties > Advanced > Startup and Recovery Settings > Edit

CAREFULLY edit your boot.ini file to remove the SECOND entry.
Your boot.ini file should then look similar to this:

[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(1)partition(1)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(1)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Home

Hi,

You will have to modify the boot.ini file that is found
in the root drive. First you will have to enable viewing
of hidden files and change the attributes of the file and
then delete the line that is not needed. Save the file
and then reboot hte computer.
