How do I get of the OS option at startup ?

[Moose157]

I just reinstalled XP Pro, and now I get the option to boot using XP, or 'unidentified OS on drive c:'

Edit the hidden file C:\BOOT.INI removing the offending item.

Thanx for that info dude

You can use MSCONFIG to do the edit.

You can also right click 'My computer' and choose properties, go to the Advanced Tab' and choose 'Startup and Recovery' and uncheck the box called 'Display list of operting systems...'

Always more than one way to approach it. I favor this one because it can be easy to bork the boot.ini file which will stop you cold in your tracks.

Cheers!
