Primary OS - Dual BootI dual boot with WinXP & Win2000. WinXP is my primary OS. I have
gotten a nasty piece of spyware in WinXP and won't have time to deal with it properly for a couple of weeks. How can I change and have WIN2000 be my primary OS on boot-up? I have tried changing the order in boot.ini but keep getting error messages. Make your change for the default OS here: R-click My Computer > Properties >
