Problem after reformat

I recently reformatted my box after having not done so in a while, so the procedure possibly slipped my mind a little. I formatted a C and D, and installed XP on C. When I boot up, it gives me an option of what I want to start with. The options show as:
Windows XP Professional
Windows XP Professional

Both choices obviously boot right up as normal, but it's just a little abnormality that I'd like to get rid of.

Right mouse click on My Computer, choose Properties.
Click Advanced Tab
Click the Startup and Recover Settings button
Click Edit and amend the config file accordingly
Deleting the second OS option should suffice.
