Hi All
When booting up I get this request to select from where I want
boot up from. Being told that this was because the hd had two active partitions I ran partitionmagic to investigate . Only one partition.
The request gives me a choice and if I dont select either one it
defaults to the first choice it offered and in this case the wrong one .
The strange thing is , both choices are labled the same and only one selection will result in a successfull bootup.
For example display will be
Please select one
1 MICROSOFT XP PRO
2 MICROSOFT XP PRO
Do I have two partitions ? how do I get rid of it without corrupting the working partition ?
It is really annoying as the computor cant boot up on its own and if I am not fast enough to select , the whole process has to be restarted. Please help
regards
