When I boot up I'm presented with a choice: Windows XP Professional or
Windows. Although I've removed my old version of Windows I'm still getting
this menu option. How do I delete it?
Thanks in advance, Mike.

Go to Start > Run and type: MSCONFIG , and hit enter.
Click on the BOOT.INI tab and then click on "Check All Boot Paths"
to delete incorrect boot paths.
If the above does not work for you, then:
Right-click MY COMPUTER and select:
Properties > Advanced > Startup and Recovery Settings > Edit
CAREFULLY edit your boot.ini file to remove the SECOND entry.
Your boot.ini file should then look similar to this:
[boot loader]
timeout=3D30
default=3Dmulti(0)disk(0)rdisk(1)partition(1)\WIND OWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(1)partition(1)\WINDOWS=3D"Microsoft Windows XP =
Professional" /fastdetect
--=20
