Hiya all,
Heres the deal,
40gb hard drive.We put windows ME on from my old 10gb hard drive.Now I tried to put xp on the 40gb hard drive and me being not good with computers I put in windows XP system and not the update disk,hence having to make a partition for this system.So now when i start my computer i get the choice of 1. ME or 2 XP......
Is their a way to make it automatically start up to windows me ,instead of it giving me the choice???

Or failing that how do I get rid of EVERYTHING off the hard disk and start from scratch.
many thanks..........flaggy :blush:

if you have 2 oses on the same comp you wil have to select one to run

you can format the hard drives to fat32 with a me boot disk or if you want to use xp on a hard drive u can just us its install cd

One way to force can force the pc to boot into me is to open xp,goto control panel>system>advanced tab>startup and recovery settings>. and change the default opereating system to windows me.

Sometimes its not so bad keeping 2 os's on your pc. If me fails you should be able to boot into xp.
