Double windows

A friend of mine had a little trouble with his computer and thought it would be a good idea to reinstall windows. However, he did not remove the old windows. (Both are XP)

I still have accès to the first windows and can probably fix his troubles but I have no idea how to remove the second windows which has not been completly installed. Both are on the same drive...

When booting up, I have accès to both in a little menu.

What can I do to remove this bootup option so that it boots rerectly into the first Windows?

Thanks

Start, Control Panel, System, Advanced, Startup and Recovery, Settings, System Startup. Here you can pick the default O/S, the amount of time it's displayed etc.

Yes but I would like to remove the fact of having two O/S.



EDIT: Never mind, I got it.

Thanks
