Dual Boot Question

Ok, long story short, at startup I have dual boot options for either WinXP or Win2000. I'm switching to Win2000 and WinXP no longer works. I would like to get rid of the WinXP boot option. How do I do this?

Thanks in advance.
 
Yeah, I don't have a boot.ini file... it's supposed to be in my main system partition, right? Well, not there. Nope...

Thats pretty impressive, you have some crazy nice skill then, no boot.ini file, must be a b!tch to boot up 😀

I just searched boot.ini and it popped up within 5 seconds
 
Bah, stupid settings not allowing me to see protected system files as default. In folder options I had checked "show hidden files and folders" but had forgot to UNCHECK "hide protected operating system files"

Ok, I'm good now. And yeah, I was beginning to think, "holy sh!t, I am teh sweetness. Booting without boot.ini. I am magical."
