I installed windows 98 on my c : and win xp on d: twice...now wven after formatting d: the menu in the start up for OS choices refuses to go...how can i correct this problem?
There r two options:
1.) Boot using Windows 98 Setup CD and in DOS prompt give following command:
sys c:
2.) Boot using Windows XP Setup CD and give following command in recovery console:
fixboot C:
Or if u are comfortable with editing config files then:
Go to C drive and open a file called bbot.ini..its a system file so make sure that u have enabled the option to see system and hidden files. That file will look like:
[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(3)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(3)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /fastdetect /noexecute
C:\="Microsoft Windows"
Just change it to:
[boot loader]
timeout=0
default=C:\
[operating systems]
C:\="Microsoft Windows Whatever"
Restart and see!!!
