How to delete Recovery Manager partitoin? After reinstall successfully, it reboots always to Recovery Manager.

Bios is setup with right order of HardDrive first. Tried Boot.exe too.

Is there a command prompt to delete the Recovery Manager partition? I can't get to my desktop.

Why would you want to delete your Recovery Manager partition? It doesn't sound like the reinstall was successful, if your computer continues to boot into recovery mode. Did you use a recovery disk in this process and later remove it? Try booting up in safe mode. If that doesn't work, then I suspect your recovery did not complete successfully.

Also, you may want to try booting from USB and then accessing the hard drive to see if the integrity is OK.

Thanks for the reply; the culprit is the bootable sequence: WINPE.RAMDISK. When the computer boots it 'stops' at the black screen with the two choices, the other one is the normal Vista Basic program. I select Vista and voila! it boots.

Now to get rid of the .RAMDISK; I went into to Bios and disabled, but still the first selection in booting remains this one....and I have to manually select Vista

It seems to have set up a dual boot system.

Go to Control Panel\System\Advanced System Settings. Click on Advanced and then Startup and Recovery\Settings. Under System Startup change the default operating system to Microsoft Vista.
