The only problem was that I had to choose at bootup which os i was to use, and it comes up with Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition SP1 and another which is )line or something similar. Can i delete that so i can have my normal bootup, without having to select it any more. What risks are there involved.<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Fri, 19 Mar 2004 20:33:37 GMT https://community.sony.lt/t5/pcs-accessories/boot-screen-and-os-please-read/m-p/11241#M130530 1234567ty 2004-03-19T20:33:37Z Boot Screen, and OS PLEASE READ https://community.sony.lt/t5/pcs-accessories/boot-screen-and-os-please-read/m-p/11242#M130531 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hi Harry,<BR />I have to ask myself why are you getting a choice of OS now and not before.<BR />Did you have the choice before?
