I started a new XP installation on a partition that contained a copy of XP
hoping that a parallel installation would let me fix numerous problems in the
older installation, however i managed to fix the problem and simply reset the
computer to exit the start of the new XP setup, which had already loaded most
files and was at the Preparing Installation stage. I am now left with the
computer booting back into the setup for the new install every time the
computer is started. My question is, how do I remove these setup files from
the new installation so that I can continue to run my old XP install alone.
Any help is appreciated.
