Hello folks.
Recently, some friends of mine had 4 instances of XP showing up at boot, and after
help I was able to edit their boot.ini file so that it only showed 1 XP, and manually
delete the 3 Windows folders that weren't needed. Their pc is now booting straight
into the good XP, and is working well, touch wood.
So, for the assistance I received with this, and other advice, I would like to say
heartfelt thanks to the following people, before one final question, if I may:
re the boot problems specifically:

thanks to: Special-K, Morbid1, John Burns
Thanks to you all....very much genuinely appreciated.
Now then, one more question:
Might there be any other files on their pc (apart from the windows folders I removed)
where any bits of the not-needed installations of XP might be residing, that I could
also go and remove ? Just wondering.
Thanks again.
Manuel.
