Wapo, not sure I understand exactly what you are saying but I assume you re-installed the operating system on the same C:\ partition as a previous install? I normally delete all partitons when I re-format and install a fresh Op. sys. You can go to "Start" " Run" and type Msconfig that will bring up a window containing various things but Boot.ini tab will offer a check of the boot paths and give you the option to delete the old system boot. That will stop the screen that comes up following POST with the choice of which Windows install you want to boot from.

If you aren't too far along with the new install I would go back and re-install from scratch carefully removing all partitions and re-formatting. There may be other possibilities in Disk Management that one of the Guru's reading this could help you with that would be less drastic than my recommendation.

Good Luck !!
