Hello all,

I had, by mistake erased the default OS line from the boot.ini file & now
Have no default OS on my drop down list.

What is the exact syntax 4 the line?

Thanks.
 
default = multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS = "Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /fastdetect
Cheers,
Jim

Jim,

Thank 4 your kind reply.

Does it have a header like [default operating] or something like it?
 
The complete boot.ini with only win XP pro (no other os):

[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /fastdetect
