Partitions

[Pidge14]

Okay, so my friends mother decided to install windows Xp. But some how she installed it twice. Now, when you turn the computer on you have to choose between the two partitions of XP, i'm confused how to do it on his computer. How can you delete partitions?

They might be installed on the same partition. You would be best off completly wiping it, doing a full reformat.

right click My computer > Manage > disk management > delete the unrequired partition from there

it isnt a partition, my friend has done the same thing before, u have 2 copies on the same partition, just format the whole thing and install it once

OK, lol, weird, if that is the case then format. I would have presumed that during the install a new partition was created and if not the OS would have just overwritten the previous install.
