Yeah, you should have no major problems just formatting the partition. Just make sure that the active boot.ini file isn't stored on the vista partition first. It shouldn't be, but vista is still in beta and we all know what M$ are like

um Cyco...
If wanting to get rid of the OS boot selection menu why not simply do it from the system properties, select the default OS, set it for 0 seconds, you won't see it at all.

(If i recall right there's a check box for even showing the menu no? Not on my home machine so no form of reference atm.. specially now i have the vista loader to contend with

)
Never turning the PC off helps too

@Gigs because I like to do things properly
Seriously though, that's a good tip although i've found it sometimes just gets stuck on the boot menu indefinately if you set the timeout to zero.

Help !
lol
basically think got some kind of virus or something.
Everytime i open internet explorer after about 30 seconds it closes.
I'm using firefox now to post this as i cant in IE.
I've just realised how much faster firefox is but my rents still prefer IE .
Are there any free software i can use to get rid of this
Thanks

You haven't got yahoo toolbar installed have you? That can cause IE to close itself. Uninstall it from add / remove programs if you have.

Ok, run a virus scan, use AVG Free if you haven't got any antivirus at the moment, then try ieFix:
http://windowsxp.mvps.org/IEFIX.htm
You might need your XP / ME / 98 disk, it'll ask you for it if it does.
Unistall any toolbars at all that you might have, including google toolbar.
Then run the usual antispyware stuff, adaware, spybot search and destroy etc.
