I Installed windows xp pro on a separate hdd from mine on my pc, for my brother.
now when i boot up it gives me aos choice menu....but this is the one that i DIDNT install pro onto, and i removed to hdd also, does anyone know which file(s) i should delete to stop this??

thanks :)
 
If I'm understanding what your saying, when you boot your system it shows 2 different copies of XP on the boot menu. If this is the case you can edit boot.ini by adding rem in front of the one you dont want to see or delete the line all together.

Be careful though! You have to remove the correct one. The one that has the /fastdetect switch is the install you boot to without any input so rem the other one.
 
If you're unsure which entry to delete, post the contents of your boot.ini file here and we can tell you what to remove.

You can view boot.ini through msconfig.
