Several windows systems in vb

Post by ergo »

Helo,

I found a curious problem in my vb: booting displays 5 windows systems to choose: "windows" and "windows.0" until "windows.3".
They are listed in windows explorer in the vb.But only choosing "windows" starts the box correctly, while the others boot the win setup process.
The different windows are rather similiar in size. I deleted some wins, but then the box system became unstable, the boot process stopped and vb didn't work.
My host and guest: xp sp 3: vb version: 2.1.4.

Can anybody explain this problem and can advice how to manage it?

Thank you for answer and help.

It indicates you have installed windows several times without removing the previous version(s).
