Windows Xp dual boot to setup: How do I remove...

[underwom]

I needed some additional components for my XP home installation, and somehow managed to start a new setup of XP on my box. now on reboot or startup, I get a dual boot to the startup and to my working XP home install. How do I remove the startup install at boot up?

Click Start, click Control Panel and then double-click System.
Advanced > Startup and Recovery > Settings > Default Operating System , click on the button under that heading & it should reveal another heading .
To manually edit the boot options file, click Edit.
