Remove dual installation

Due to dial-up problems I did a fresh install of XP... e.i. I got a dual install! Now, how do I remove the install I now longer wish to use... I takes to much space for me? Thanks...

Probably just format that partition unless it is your main partition
You will see a boot.ini file in the root of that operating system if you have hidden folders and show operating system checked in the folder options.

Well if you have an option to select the operating system in the startup then you have a boot.ini file. If you want to remove the first installed OS that is a little harder to do.
