Here are 2 ways :
1. Start > Run
Type msconfig > Click OK
Go to "BOOT.INI" tab
Click the button "Check all boot paths"
Follow the instructions to remove the invalid line.
2. Click Start > Run
Type "notepad \boot.ini" (Without quotes) > Click OK
Click on "Format" menu and untick "Word wrap"
Now remove 2nd line below [operating system] section
Click File - Save
As a precaution, no matter which step you choose, run the first step again.
Finally, Click Start > Run > Type "\boot.ini" > Click OK
It should be like :
[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional"
/fastdetect

My computer crashed and I took it in for repairs.They "wiped" it clean and
re-installed XP Home Edition.When it boots-up,the first window shows 2
Versions of XP. I have to click one in 30 seconds or it will then continue
to load. I'm not use to this and was wondering if there is anyway to
eliminate one of them?
