Resolved Boot-anomaly

Hi All
I have a Boot-anomaly. Whenever I boot up, for just a second, I think I see a boot menu. It has 3 option (I think), one being "Microsoft windows home editionâ€. That is the one highlighted. After this flashes across the screen, it boots normally. This started after my last bout with some BSOD’s that are resolved now. (thanks Broni)

Since I think this is a boot menu, I looked at my boot.ini file and here is what is in it:

[boot loader]
timeout=3
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)windows
[operating systems]
C:\cmdcons\bootsect.dat=â€Microsoft Recovery Console" /cmdcons
unsupportedDebug=â€do not select this" /debug
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)WINDOWS=â€Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect.

Since I am not familiar with boot.ini, and I don’t want to mess it up, can someone look at this and let me know if I am on the rite track?

This does not impede the function of my pc, but it was not there before and if it is not needed, I would like it gone.

Thanks

Thanks Evan,

I think I will just set it to Zero seconds, that way I don't see it and I don't have to mess with it.

On the lower right side is a field called timeout. Is that the place to change the setting?

Thanks

 

I tried to set it to Zero, but it will not let me. 3 seconds minimum.

any other way of getting in there?
