Initial my xp is in C partition and I just install the same OS in the D
partition. Now upon boot up it will always ask me which OS do I want to start
with, Cos I want the fresh OS which is the First line (or choice) appearing
when power up the machine.

The dual boot.ini looks like this at the moment

[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP
Professional" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP
Professional" /fastdetect

What shall I modify in the boot.ini so that it will always pick the fresh OS
and load immediately, Thank you for yr help.
 
Set the timeout = 0.
