I already have Windows XP on my laptop in Drive C and i installed windows Visat Home basic in Drive D. Every time when i bootup my computer it says if i want to use XP or Vista. Visat wasnt working properly,I didnt know how to uninstall it so i just formated the Drive D. But still when i start my laptop it askes me if i want to use vista or XP. If i choose to use vista it says reinstall vista. But i dont want vista. How can i completely remove it?

You can remove the startup prompt. Right click My Computer -> Goto Properties -> Advanced -> Startup and Recovery -> Settings. Uncheck "Time to display list of operating systems".

In XP, Start > Run and type msconfig, edit the Boot.ini file and remove the Vista entry.
If that is too complicated, use your Recovery CD to re-install XP.
Remember to back up all your personal data first.

Right Click My Computer, click on Properties, Advanced, Start up and Recovery.
Make sure that you have WinXP selected as default operating system then uncheck display list of operating systems.
