Which one do you pick to load XP? You can fix that by editing your boot.ini file. We just need to know which entry you select to load XP so the correct one can removed.


They both say the same but I use the one that is the preset choice. I do not navigate on the boot menu.

OK so you just leave it and dont pick the 2nd option? That means the first choice is your OS.

Make sure you BACKUP your boot.ini first before modifying it. Please post the contents of your boot.ini and i will tell you what you need to remove.
