215430 2004-02-14 03:14:00 I have a dual boot system, between Windows 2000 (default) and a now dead-as-a-doornail Windows XP (due to corruption from a hardware problem, now fixed). To delete Windows XP (which is on its own partition), do I simply delete the WINDOWS directory on that drive? If so, how do I go then remove it from the startup menu?

Thanks
