Remove the Multi-Boot Option on startup.
When more than one instance of XP (or other Microsoft operating
systems) is or were installed, you'll receive a boot menu when
you start the computer. If you don't need this choice anymore
you can change it as shown below.
There is a text file on your computer called boot.ini that
contains the information about your installed operating systems,
which is usually in "C:\" or C:\boot.ini. Right click it and
open it with Notepad or another text editor.
You'll see a line there for each operating system you have
installed. You can delete the line for the old instance of XP to
eliminate this menu choice. However, it's very important that
you delete the correct line.
Then "Save" and re-boot. No more OS selections will appear.
This is very simple to do however if you remove the wrong data
your in big trouble.
Make a backup of the original file just in case.
For detailed instructions on editing the boot.ini file, see KB
