Post-Installation Cleanup

For some reason unknown to me, as I ran through the installation, this worked example Windows created two entries in boot.ini instead of one. This has the annoying effect of making you wait 30 seconds or press any key during start up. I don’t know why it did this, but it’s easy to correct.

Press “Start” > “Run” and type “C:\boot.ini” and press “OK” as shown on the left.

Delete the last line (starting “multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)”) and save the file. Next time you boot, the problem will be gone.
