Original OS in C: of my office pc is Win NT.
Now I install Win 2000 into D:.

While turn on the PC, there are two choice OS -- first is Win 2000, second is Win NT.
If I don't select Win NT, pc will be auto run Win 2000 at first.

How I can put Win NT for first choice or pc can run Win NT at first ?

In WinNT go into the Startup options in the Properties of My Computer and set the default OS to be Windows NT. This will edit the boot.ini to actually carry this out. You could also edit the boot.ini manually but it sounds like that may be more than you want to mess with.
