Probably the best way is to right click on "My Computer">Properties>Advanced>Startup and Recovery. You'll see System Startup. In the pull down menu, select Windows 2000. Below it uncheck the "Time to Display list of operating systems" box. This way you will boot straight into W2K. Afterwards you could then edit the boot.ini file and remove the Windows ME entry, which will probably just say Microsoft Windows. You can then safely delete the "Windows" folder. Remember that W2K system folder is named "WINNT" I would then convert the drive/partition to NTFS. However, first things firt huh? :-) ============================ Eagles May Soar, But Weasels Don't Get Sucked Into Airplane Engines! ============================ >-----Original Message----- >From: computertalkshop-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx >[mailto:computertalkshop-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Jackie >MacWhirter >Sent: Sunday, November 10, 2002 2:33 PM >To: computertalkshop@xxxxxxxxxxxxx >Subject: [CTS] how do I uninstall window Me dual booting win 2000 > > >Hi Everybody: I am dual booting with Win Me and windows 2000 >pro-- I had Windows Me first then I installed windows 2000 pro-- >I have partition magic so I changed the partitions to make the c >drive larger--I did this using windows 2000.
