4 options on bootup.

5 posts · originally from https://geek.digit.in/community/threads/4-options-on-bootup.12653/

I recently installed Windows Longhorn. But soon formatted the drive on which it was installed. Windows XP was also on the same drive. So it also got deleted. Now i get 4 options at the startup:

Windows Longhorn
Windows XP
Previous Operating System
Windows 98

How to remove the first three???
I search for boot.ini but not found it.

Help!!!!

open the boot.ini

Start>run>boot.ini

edit it....

boot.ini is a hidden file in ur root drive (c: )

You need not find it and open it. Do this instead:
Start->Run->msconfig

Choose the boot.ini tab and edit the contents.

Yes, found the hidden file . But there is no boot.ini in msconfig. I am using windows 98.

simple

run ms config &
in the last tab click on check all boot paths
comp will promtu 2 delete unused paths
and start up with modified boot.ini
