When I start my computer the default boot is to "D" drive.
I want it to default to the "C" drive where my NTFS is.
My computer is a partitioned 60 GB hard drive with windows
2000 NTFS on "C" and the FAT32 is on the "D". After they
were loaded I could not find a way to change the order of
the start selection. Now if the computer is turned on and
no one waits to select the "C" drive, it automaticaly
opens to the "D" drive, and as I work 98% of the time in
the NTFS system I must go thru the long wait of the
restart and opening.
Thank you in advance

Either use a text editor, such as NotePad, to manually edit
C:\Boot.ini to select a new default OS, or, from within Win2K,
right-click My Computer > Properties > Advanced > Startup and
Recovery, Settings > Default operating system.

It was so simple all I needed was for you to point the way.

For two years I fought with this problem and the computer
experts here in Peru couldn't fix it either. They all keep
looking to fix it from the dual boot menu. Thanks for your
help.
