| Member | How to Eliminate XP Setup Option from Booting Vista? Hello Board! I am running Vista now but I attempted to install XP Pro for dual booting. However, when I decided to eliminate the XP Pro, for I found Vista is more suitable for me. Unfortunately, I now got stuck with the XP Setup option still lingering as the default option when the computer turns on. I thought I had completely removed the XP OS from my D:\ drive which was the drive for XP. Appearantly, somehow I did not completely remove all the XP files because obviously there is still a trace of it hidden somewhere in the system. I have looked into the msconfig>BOOT and there is only one default OS which is the Vista. Is there any way I can get rid of the XP Setup option? Any help at all would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in Advance. |
