| Startup shows XP Home and Setup - How to remove the Setup prompt? Upon startup I am presented with a selector menu... Windows XP Home Edition or Windows XP Setup. If the Home Edition isn't selected then it wants the XP CD and wants to install or upgrade. (note: I had quit the install process, it started from the CD and I hit Quit install - nothing had started installing). Is there a Folder/file somewhere that has this startup item for the "Windows Setup" that can be deleted?      |

| Re: Startup shows XP Home and Setup - How to remove the Setup prompt? Microsoft Windows XP Setup Remains in Boot.ini http://support.microsoft.com/kb/827324 If you find it a bit difficult to follow the instructions just paste the contents of the boot.ini file here and someone will tell you which entries to remove and how to edit the default= line.
