My pc has 3 OS's listed on startup. I know was installed on its own partition of a separate drive from the others, but that partition has been formatted; the option is still there though. One is installed on c:\ drive. The last one in the list won't boot due to hardware complications. My boot.ini looks like this
[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(2)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect
I want to keep the second one, but don't know where to find the files that relate to the others so I can delete them if necessary. Would I be safe in assuming the first one (from the drive that was formatted) can just be deleted from this line, and all files for it are gone? Any help would be appreciated.
