I had partitioned my HD to run XP (pro sp3) and Vista. Not liking vista, I deleted it and merged the two partitions into one, XP.
Now when I boot I still get the option to boot to vista or an earlier OS. There is only one OS so I thought that would just be gone. Its not.
How do I get rid of that screen at start so it just boots into xp?
I'm being careful because I tried to reverse them when I partitioned it and ended up with a real jumbo **** and almost didn't get it back.
Thanks

boot to windows xp install disk and go to the repair console.
Type fixmbr
and then fixboot.
This will replace the vista boot files with the xp files.

I will give it a try. sounds good.

You know that you should clean the outside of your computer screen every so often. However, did you know that you're supposed to clean the inside of the screen, too? Not many people know this or how to do it. So, here's a complimentary cleaning.
