Then click EDIT under the default Operating System and you should see two lines like this under "operating systems". Code: multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" The partition increments (the above example is partition(1). You might also see a partition(2) in the second similar line. Delete the higher version increment (leaving partition(1)) nothing else, just the entire line as above then reboot.
