| 696275 | 2008-08-10 10:07:00 | I have got Vista Home Permium and I couldn't get Internet Explorer to load so thought that if I loaded windows again, then this would fix my problem. Wrong!!! I have now got my original loaded version on one partition (C drive) of my hard drive and the new install on my G drive. So now when I start my computer it asks me to select Windows Vista on G drive or Windows Vista home premium (recovered) on my C drive. How can I delete the Vista on G drive. I tried deleting files etc but it won't allow my to get rid of it completely. This is all on one hard drive but on two different partitions on that same hard drive. Can someone please help me? |
