I recently formatted and restored WinXP. I am now
prompted on every boot for which OS I want to use. Both
say Windows XP. How do I change this so I am not
prompted?

Hi Michael,

Go to Start/Run and type in: msconfig
Then go to the Boot.ini Tab and click on Check All Boot Paths. If you
receive a warning about a duplicate path: Do you want to remove, choose
yes.

Or...

Right click the My Computer icon/Properties/Advanced/Startup and
Recovery/Settings/System Startup/Edit.
