Windows boot selection

[babaton]

Hello,

I have a laptop which had Win NT reinstalled.

Now when I start up I have a selection of 2 versions of Win NT to start.

How do I get rid of the old one.

Its held on the boot sector right?
Why isn't it erased when the drive is formatted?

As I said before I'm lacking a lot of PC basics,I'm a mac bod really.

Cheers.

There should be a file on your C: called "boot.ini" Youll need to edit that.

Here is mine:

[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" /fastdetect
