    Whenever I turn my computer on, it gives me an option for which version of Windows I would like to load (both options are Windows XP MCE). I have no idea why it does this... I only have one partition on my hard drive with one version of Windows. Does anyone know why it does this and how I can fix it?

    Thanks!

    You need to edit your boot.ini file:

    right click on my computer --> proprieties-->advanced-->startup and recovery section-->settings-->edit-->delete the line that starts with multi--> save file and exit
