I have a problem, that when I boot I get the options of two operating systems while I have only one installed on my pc.

I checked the boot.ini file and this is the contents:

[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

It gives me the Options to start Windows XP Proffesion or to start Windows (which is marked default)

But when I start Windows (default) it just gives me some errors and restarts.

If anyone can help please do so.........
