I have a question about How do I uninstall Windows?:

I installed win2000 and winXP. I get the option to chose which operating system to load. How do i uninstall win2000? if not, is there a way to load winXP without having to chose?

What I would recommend, if you don't want to start completely over (because you will 
if you uninstall win2k), is to switch the boot order and set the timeout to 1 second 
or 0 seconds by modifying the boot.ini file.

Like this: 

1. Right click 'My Computer'
2. Left click 'Properties'
3. Click the 'Advanced' tab
4. Click 'Settings' under Startup and Recovery
5. Click the Drop-Down to select XP as the default OS
6. set time to display list of operating systems to 0 or 1 second.
7. OK, Apply, OK, Reboot.  It should boot straight to xp.

Good luck.
