How Do You Remove A Bootable Partition XP Dual-Boot?
When you dual-boot between multiple operating systems, a new partition is created on your hard drive for each OS. A partition is a portion of your hard drive that is allocated for use only with a specific operating system. If you want to remove a bootable dual-boot partition in Windows XP, you can use a program that is a permanent fixture of the operating system called “Msconfig.” More specifically, you will use Msconfig’s boot manager. Run Msconfig by clicking on “Start,” “Run” and typing “Msconfig” into the “Run” utility and clicking on “OK.” Msconfig will appear on your monitor. Click “Boot.” Click one time on the name of the dual-boot operating system that you’d like to remove. Click “Delete” to remove this bootable operating system from Windows XP’s memory.
