>When I re-boot my NT4.0 SP3 Machine, It gets to the point where I see the blue screen menu with my choice for starting 1-Windows NT, 2-Windows NT (vga mode), or 3-NT Setup. Choice 3 is the default and if I'm not in my seat (reboot, get coffee. hard habit to break after 10 years) I end up in Setup/Install mode. I cancel out of @#$%^ setup mode like 3 times a day it seems!!!! (Multiple Reboot-gasms brought to you Compliments of GroupWise losing regular battles with Dr. Watson)

>I never had the Choice 3 until our tech left the NT CD in my machine and forgot it was there. Sure enough these oh so wonderful rebootable NT CDs started this hassle the next time I rebooted and went for coffee. After bugging Mr. Tech guy for 2 months, he finally changed the menu - or so he said. Only difference I see is the text beside the 3 choices reads differently, but still works the same. Is there some way I can get the darn menu to go back to the way it was originally, with only 2 options and the default being the regular NT mode?

Log into the machine on an account with Administrator or Domain Administrator privileges.

You'll find a file BOOT.INI in the root directory. Change it to a normal, not read only file, and edit it with a text processor (Notepad works well.) Remove the line associated with the third boot menu option from the file, and save it.

Change the file permissions back the way you found them on BOOT.INI after saving the changes.

When you next restart the system, the third entry will be gone from the menu.
