Boot Issues
LockedGreetings and a happy new year to all.
I have a long running problem with Boot.
I am running XP Pro, but at one time installed Windows 7, which I later removed. Sadly the boot file now tries to load Win 7 (which of course isn’t there). So when I start the computer I have to select “Earlier Version of Windows”. The boot notepad file requires BCDEdit.exe, which does not exist on my computer.
How can I modify the boot file to get rid of this annoying problem?. Here’s a copy of the boot file:
;
;Warning: Boot.ini is used on Windows XP and earlier operating systems.
;Warning: Use BCDEDIT.exe to modify Windows Vista boot options.
;
[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 /FASTDETECTThanks in advance and regards to all
