I have two Windows XP operating systems on my PC and "the Windows XP Media has a DLL file missing and I can no longer open it" I would like to remove that one. If anyone can help me with this problem I would appreciate it. Thank you, Dave

Boot from the first installed copy of XP.

In Explorer you should see two drive icons, like "C", "D". If it is the second copy you installed that you need to remove, it must reside on the "D" part of the hard disk.

Just right click it, and choose Format. This will delete the Windows XP copy you don't need and free up the Partition.

If it is on the Primary Partition and you wish to remove it, I would Backup my Data. It is a lot easier to blow away and recreate the Partitions and Reinstall XP.
