I have a dual boot system with Win XP on both partitions and now when I
start either one, it asks me which one I want to start. I dont want this
because I use a boot manager and dont need any help from windows.
Can anyone tell me how to disable this?? I just want it to boot when I tell
it to and not ask any questions on how to boot.
Thank you

Take out one of the lines that looks something like
"multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP
Professional" - You should just have one line in their. Although you Boot
Manager also might be one of the lines.
HOW TO: Edit the Boot.ini File in Windows XP
