- Boot into WinXP.
- Rename c:\Windows to c:\Windows.me
- Wait a week
- If all is well, delete c:\Windows.me
- Click "System" in the Control Panel
- Click "Advanced", then "Startup and Recovery", then "Settings", then
"Edit"
- Remove the Windows ME line

- Don't wipe it - just delete c:\Windows.me.
> Can I transfer XP to my first partition ?.
- Yes, but it's rather dicey. Not recommended.
