i just have one OS installed.

this is what those instructions gave me:

[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="Windows XP Professional"

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

why is catch32 banned?

 

[yoyo]

I guess he is not really banned.... Other question: Do you know if the above boot.ini will work. I don't know why there are so many lines as soon as I press "submit reply" didn't type it that way.

Add the "/fastdetect" from yoyo's post and then change the timeout value to 1. That way the boot screen will still come up but you probably wont see it.
