I ahve recently loaded Windows XP Home Edition. I was
previously using XP Professional. I now have a duls boot
system. Can anyone please advise me how I remove Windows
Professional to leave me with a single operating system.

Hi,

Boot the system you want to keep, delete the system folders from the one you
wish to remove using Windows Explorer. Then edit boot.ini (a hidden system
file on the root of the boot drive) to remove the reference to the unwanted
system.
