Hi vegan,

Could you please tell us which versions of windows are present and also if you are actually able to boot into each and everyone of them? Do you have a choice at the start?

If you can't choose from the start which version boot, how do you know that it's 3 seperate installations. It's easy to fix, just will need a little more info and I'm pretty sure everyone here will considering we wouldn't want to screw up all 3 [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Do you know if they are all on seperate partitions...

You probably are recognizing the service packs, how many megs are each of the versions.

Doubtful as he can boot in each version and has a boot menu. If they are seperate partition it's just a matter of whipping them out and re-writting the MBR.

yeah true, the original post was a little vague.

You wouldnt need to rewrite the MBR, you could just wipe the OS you want removed and change the boot.ini file.
