OS Loader for Windows XP Home Edition

[Guest]

Please help to get rid of the OS Loader.

I installed Windows XP Home Edition over XP Professional.
I chose the option to delete the partition and installed
XP Home Edition over to the partition. Now when I start
Windows XP, I am getting the famous OS Selection menu,
which I do not need. Please let me know how to get rid of
that. I realized that the file is not any longer NTLDR
and the location may not same as Windows NT.

Go to Start > Run and type: MSCONFIG , and hit enter.
Click on the BOOT.INI tab and then click on "Check All Boot Paths"
to delete incorrect boot paths.

If the above does not correct the issue, then:

Right-click on MY COMPUTER and select:

Properties > Advanced > Startup and Recovery Settings > Edit

CAREFULLY edit your boot.ini file.
Your boot.ini file should then look similar to this:

[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(1)partition(1)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(1)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition" /fastdetect
