View Full Version : Two windows show at startup.


December 5th 03, 01:25 AM
I had to re-install Windows XP. Now two lines show Windows on startup and
the old one's still in the directory. How do I delete the file showing in
the startup?

Thanks

Control Panel, System, Advanced, Startup and Recovery, Settings. Click the
Edit button to edit BOOT.INI

If you're not sure of what you're removing/changing, post the contents here
with more information about your setup.
