Hi All,

My computer works fine. But I could not find C:\boot.ini file. I am using
Dell with Win XP. I could open Boot.ini by selecting open the Start menu,
right-click on "My Computer" and choose "Properties" from the context menu.  
In the section "Startup and Recovery" click the button "Settings".

Is anybody know why I could not find Boot.ini? thanks a lot.

It is a hidden file. In Folder Options View, elect to show hidden and
system files.

operating system files. Click Apply.
