512767 2007-01-05 02:46:00 I have today loaded Acronis' OS Boot loader. I have now decided that I do not want it but cannot work out how to remove it. I assume that it is somewhere in BIOS? Am I right? Can anyone help me remove it please?

Bryan.

512770 2007-01-05 04:01:00 uninstall Acronis OS Selector in one of the following ways:

Windows 95/98/ME – boot from Startup Disk and run "fdisk /mbr" command;
Windows 2000/XP – boot from Installation Disc into Recovery Console and run "fixmbr" command.
