You need to edit the boot.ini file.

Now I must have the 60GB drive in place, and cannot have a third rive installed because the boot sequence, which gives a choice of 4 OS to boot from, is on it. How can I haave the 300gb drive be the only drive and boot from it? (of course I could reinstall the OS I know).
