I bought a computer that has both windows XP home and
professional on two seperate drives. XP Pro. is on my C:
and XP home on F: drive. How do I uninstall the one on
the F: drive. C: is my default drive and the one I would
like to keep> Please help there have been no problems yet
but would like to uninstall the OS on the F:drive. Please
tell me how .
 
Remove the line from boot.ini located in the root of the system partition.
Explorer|Tools|Folder Options|View, then radio button for "Show hidden files
and folders", then uncheck the box for "Hide protected operating system
files" to locate the files in the system partition. Should end up with
something like this (below) Then format the F:\ drive.

[boot loader]
timeout=10
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP
Professional" /fastdetect
