Ant -|- One 0 Posted December 3, 2001 Some friend of mine had to install Win2K pro over itself (don't ask me why, I don't know, to solve a problem I guess), everything went well, except for one thing (though not this problematic): the F8 boot menu has seen each one of its lines dupplicated (2 Safe Mode, 2..., 2...)... Any idea about this ? How to set things right back ? Thanx. Share this post Link to post
Palos 0 Posted December 3, 2001 I guess the French do it differently ( ) but did he just install "over" or did he use the recovery option? Share this post Link to post
Xiven 0 Posted December 3, 2001 Just edit the boot.ini file to remove the duplicate entries Share this post Link to post
Ant -|- One 0 Posted December 3, 2001 Thank you Xiven, I will advise my friend of your tip ! Didn't thought it would be that simple, and didn't know this lines were stored there... Thanx again ! Share this post Link to post
Ant -|- One 0 Posted December 5, 2001 Hem, Xiven in a clean install of win2k, there are no lines for 'Safe Mode', 'Last known...', so I doubt they will be there in the boot.ini on my friend's pc, are you sure it is not somewhere else ? Thank you, or anyone else ! Share this post Link to post
