On An HP puter I find that on booting a choice appears to boot either XP Prof. or XP Home (home does not exist anymore - in fact I thought that I had gotton rid when I formatted the HD etc
How do I get rid of the opion to boot XP Home?

There's an easier way... Start > Run > type "msconfig" > BOOT.INI tab > Check All Boot Paths.
