okay.... this is a new one on me.... let me get this symptom straight....
When the system boots... it goes through the standard Bios startup and after it finishes and starts to load the OS it switches OS load/status screens from pro/home?

Does it start pro logo first, then home? vice versa?
Home built computer? brand name?

Home was installed before? by factory? by you?
Pro was recently installed by you. Did you delete partition or just reformat?
NTFS format before and now, FAT32 before and NTFS now?

thx SC .. i got it done .. by searching for 1-2 hrs geez ..

** here is how to fix **

i did an easy trick .. my comp properties --> advanced --> start up / recovery setting --> uncheck time to display operating system ..

more advanced ... go to edit and delete the line that show the os that u don't need .. wow .. never know this before :p

**** problem that occurred earlier ****

power on .. it asks me to pick which os ..

window xp pro
window xp home

which i have only xp pro in my laptop ..

one of a site that i found that .. useful to all of us .. and i misunderstood about virtual mem completely after i read his note ..
