Hello, I recently added XP to my Win 2000 PC and now get at startup a screen asking me which system I want to use. Default is XP, but I want to change this to Win2000. I can't change during startup because the cordless keyboard is not recognised until Win is running. I found a suggestion that I alter the boot.ini file, but there is no boot.ini file or anything that looks like it, on my hard disc. Thanks

First restart your computing device in DOS mode and format the living house windows stress. only write "format c:" if C is the stress on which living house windows Vista is intalled you'll lose each and each of the data on that stress. So, first backup each and each of the functional information on your living house windows stress (reproduction them to a distinct folder). Then restart your computing device again and flow to BIOS by technique of urgent Delete button on your keyboard continually even as your computing device is booting replace boot mode to "Boot form CD/DVD" Then insert living house windows XP CD and restart your computing device again the following message will ensue "Press any key besides from CD" and then hit any key The living house windows XP Setup will start up and then only persist with the onscreen training.
