hi,
yesterday i reinstalled WIN XP on my system. while installing i formatted a partition using the option in setup. the problem is that when the system boots up sys provides two options for booting into win xp. one of them is void. i want to remove this. what shld i do.
plz hlp
thnx
i think u have not formated the drive where the os was previously installed.. as as u formated the other drive u are getting 2 option in the menu...... and one of them is corruoted of deleted.... you can go to boot .ini and edit it... but i would since u have reinstalled xp recently... its better to install it again.. and be carefull. this time make sure u format the root directory where the 1st xp was installed..... and dont forget to format the other drive where u have recently nstalled xp.....(2nd format is to remove extra files) -> before that make all data back ups to some other drive letter...
Go through
Start>Run>type "msconfig".
In msconfig window select booi.ini
Than Check both path.Windows remove currupted.
You can also do this from boot.ini file(path- C:\boot.ini).
Edit boot.ini ( sometimes hidden)
Or else if you cannot find boot.ini , then just right click on My Computer
-> & search for the option edit boot.ini...
I dont have WinXP installed right now so dont remember it correctly...
thnks but one more
thank you very much!!!!
i also have another problem. i cannot install updates provided my microsoft for win xp bcoz my copy is not authentic. is there any way to get them??????
thnx
