Help me edit my boot.ini file.

[de8212]

I want to get rid of the Microsoft Windows option. I use to have this drive set up to dual boot but I just have win2k on it now.

Do I just delete the "Microsoft Windows" portion or the C:\ = "Microsoft Windows"?
Thanks.

Just a note that this thread is not General Hardware and will probably be locked. Anyway,

[boot loader]
timeout=5
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINNT
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINNT="Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional" /fastdetect

is all that you need.

Yep. AndyHui's got it. Just delete the bottom line.

Or go to win2k, right click my computer, go to advanced, then startup and recovery and set the timer to go 0 seconds and it should skip the boot.ini all together.
