Hey, my computer was running slow so I thought that if I ran the
error-check and automatically fix options I might work better. I
checked both boxes and clicked start and it said that id would check
and fix the errors the next time I'd restart my computer. Now everytime
I turn on my computer it aks me which OS I wanna run (Windows xp home or
windows xp home (bootscreen)). I want this to stop, as it really annoys
me to wait some extra time every time I turn my computer on, I already
tried to uncheck the boxes (Local drive C: Tools) but they were
already unchecked. The OS question continues to occur whenever I
restart or turn the computer on. How do I fix this?

Thanks,
Daniel

Unread protect c:\boot.ini and remove the offending line with a text
editor. - (windows xp home (bootscreen))

Lots of other ways, this is just how I'd do it.
