Hi Club,
I've had to reinstall XP, now I have two versions at login. How do I delete / remove the version that does not work??

Thanks H

Hi Proffessor Hawk and welcome to Club Vaio.

Right-click on Start -> Explore, Click on VAIO (C:) and find C:\BOOT.INI

Save a copy as BOOT.OLD

Right-click on BOOT.INI and choose 'OPEN' (Or choose 'Open With' and choose Notepad)

Edit the file by removing the version of Windows you don't need under [Operating Systems].

Save and close

Reboot

If you are not sure which one to delete, give us details of what you have installed on each Partition and we can help you choose!!!!

:wink:

EDIT: Whatever you do, don't guess. If you get the wrong one your Vaio will not boot!!
