How do I switch the order of Operating Systems on my boot-up screen (WXP)?

I have two partitions on my hard drive, each with Windows XP as the operating system. How can I change the order in the boot-up screen so I don't have to constantly choose the one I use the most?How do I switch the order of Operating Systems on my boot-up screen (WXP)?
Their are Two ways one is to edit the boot.ini file directly (not recomended)



The other is to right click on My Computer

Select the advanced tab

Click on the ';Startup and Recovery'; Settings button

From the ';Default Operating System'; menu select your choice.

Click OK, on both windows and on next boot your default will be what you selected.How do I switch the order of Operating Systems on my boot-up screen (WXP)?
you can't if you have two o's on each hard drive you have to select one on boot up but if there on sepret hard drives you could always disconnect one of them an only use the one you use the most and if you want to use the other one just connect it i hoped that helped!
1, all programs

2, administrative tools

3, system configuration

4,click boot tab

then click on the one to delete or click default sounds better
JAB is correct. But my question is.....why do you have it set up this way? Why two XP's? Is one XP Pro and the other XP Home?



Makes no sense.
Right-click on My Computer icon...go to Properties....Advanced....Startup and Recovery Settings. You can tell it to display the list of OS in the amount of seconds you want so you can choose.



If you just want to change the way it shows up then you have to edit the boot.ini file in the root directory (make sure you allow for hidden files to be shown). Just move them in the order you want to see.
Write click on My Computer. Click on properties. Then click on Advanced tab. In that select Startup and Recovery. Click on the settings tab. In it you will find at the top, the operating systems installed under the heading Default Operating System. Select the one you mostly use. Then go to edit tab. When you click on it you will go to boot.ini file. Here change the timeout to 0 and save.
