To get rid of the dual boot: Remove XP from the boot.ini as follows: Start | Run | cmd c: cd\ attrib boot.ini -r -s -h copy boot.ini boot.ini.bak (for safety) notepad boot.ini (Format | No Word Wrap) Remove the line referring to Windows XP. IF XP was the default operating system, change the "default" line to boot to 2003 instead. See the sample boot.ini below: [boot loader] timeout=3 default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WIN2K3 [operating systems] (Delete this Line) multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /fastdetect multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WIN2K3="Microsoft Windows Server 2003" /fastdetect (you can also change the default in MSCONFIG on the Boot.ini tab) attrib boot.ini +r +s +h Then delete the folder XP's installed to.
