I have two hard drives with XP installed in both and I want get rid o
XP on one. I don't know much, I formatted the 2nd hard drive with th
Windows XP CD and it installed XP along formatting. I ended up havin
to pick from 2 options all the time when i start my computer and m
2nd hard drive only has 40gb and it justs wastes valuable space wit
XP installed. Can someone tell me how to get rid of it if it take
formatting again somehow
 
From the first drive rt click MyComputer>select
Properties>Advanced>Startup and Recovery-Settings>Default Operating System
box Down arrow. Make sure that the First Drive's XP is showing in the box.
You can click on Edit to
make the determination. Change the Time to Display Operating Systems
from 30 to 2. Finally, open MyComputer and
rt click on the second drive Icon and choose Format.
