Title: Operating sys question
Post by: MwXX on October 05, 2003, 10:26:52 PM

AS you can see in previous threads, I have had problems with win2k for a while now, and just decided to upgrade to XP

now on start up, it prompts me to start in xp or win2k...now that i have transffered all vital info and files....how do i get rid of the 2k  at start up and use xp from now on?

"upgrading to xp fixed all probs i had with win2k" AMEN!!!!

as mentioned..it was an upgrade so will uninstalling it affect XP?

just wondering what to do from here? just dont want to click on the OS everytime the PC fires up....

and thanks for all the help u guys!


:D
