    Hi,
    I have both windows xp and windows 2000 installed on my Workstation. I was wondering if anybody knew how I could uninstall either of them. I hate having to go through the select OS screen. Any help is much appreciated. Thank You.

    If you aren't pressed for drive space and just want to not get the option any longer, edit c:\boot.ini and remove the line(s) that refer to the OS you don't want to use.

    The file is hidden and read-only so you will have to change the properties to edit it. Use notepad or any other text editor and save the finished product.
