Two installations of the same OS

I now have vista installed on both hard disk drives. What is the correct way to remove the unwanted installation? And is there a way to confirm I am un-installing the correct one?

Durring the post on a boot-up I get a screen asking to choose which Vista to run.

When I unplug the second hard drive windows boots just fine.

Would I be able to just re-format the drive the second intallation is on while in the correct installation? Could it be that easy?

Hi Clyder,

Yes, I believe it is that easy.

However, don't take my word on it. I recommend that you post the question in the Vista Answers Forum (http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/category/windowsvista). There are a number of Microsoft and Community support people that probably have better knowledge, in that area of Vista, then I do.

Thank you,
Darin MS
