    The nerdy way:
    Open c:\boot.ini and remove the references to the invalid option.

    The other way:
    Right click on [My Computer].
    Select "Properties".
    Select the [Advanced] tab.
    Under "Startup and Recovery", push the [Settings] button.
    Modify the "System Startup" information to how you want. If you set the timer to 0, you won't get that OS menu automatically anymore, byt make sure that the default selection is correct.
    Good Luck,
