A while back I installed a second copy of windows xp pro, when I had to rebuild a computer and used the old hard drives. Anyway, when I boot up, I am given the option of choosing which OS location I want to use. Is there a way to remove the OS that I don't use to get rid of this action? Or, should I just leave it as is, since the space used and operation of the computer are just fine?

Can't emphasize enough the part in #6:

"Check carefully that you have the correct folder before highlighting the folder for deletion."
