General Windows Boot Question.

[tiredoflogins]

How do you edit the boot options that you see when your machine boots up?

I am seeing two entries like this

Windows 98

Microsoft Windows XP HomeEdition

Windows 98

Microsoft Windows XP HomeEdition

I tried editing the boot.ini file, but that has not worked.

[boot loader]

timeout=30

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" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect

put this into your boot.ini file

You can access boot.ini file through my computer properties --> advanced --> startup and recovery settings...

I agree with astalavista..
