Start Up Trouble

[Ironmuskrat]

Hello,

I have sort of a weird problem with my Windows XP startup. I have two hard
drives on my computer, on the first I had Windows XP loaded, on the second
Hard drive I had Windows Server operating system loaded. On my computer
startup the sceen would pop up asking me which operating system I would like
to start.

Well, I went I formated the hard drive that had the Windows Server operating
system on it.

So here is my problem, On startup my computer is still asking me if I would
like to run either Windows XP or Windows Server, of course the Windows Server
no longer exists. I have no idea how to fix this. Any help would be greatly
appreciated.

Thank You.

A simpler solution to this specific problem is to use Start - Run -
MSCONFIG. Go to the BOOT.INI tab and click on the "Check all boot
paths" button.

Good luck
