Hi all,
I have noticed this problem on a few PC's after I software re-build them. After totally backing-up all necessary data and drivers on a PC, I am ready for a re-install of Win XP Pro. I insert the disk as per usual and begin the re-install process. I always opt for a full NTSC format after deleting the original OS partition and creating a new one. It takes a while to format but usually ensures a clean build.
Once Win XP is fully re-installed, configured and at the desktop stage for the first time, the next time I reboot I get an option during the boot phase to choose which OS to boot to ... both say the same: Windows XP Professional.
It is not a big deal, in that the first option always boots up OK, but I would like to get rid of this during boot as it confuses some clients.
It doesn't happen all the time, but out of 10 it would happen around 2-3 times.
If anyone knows how to avoid or fix this problem please let me know.
Cheers
