i had 2 partitions on my hard drive. each with an install of XP on it. i have since formatted and reinstalled XP on one of the partitions and no longer see the OS selection screen, anyone know how i can get back into that operating system?
 
One thing you can try is going to Start->Run and type 'msconfig'. Click on the BOOT.INI tab and then click 'check all boot paths'. I know this works if you remove an additional windows install, not sure if it works in reverse. If not id try googling around for a bit. Someone else out there has to have the same issue.
 
i believe it's in control panel-system-advance-startup and recovery setting-check box "time to display list of operating systesms"
