I am currently dual booting with XP. The XP side of things has gone a bit
wobbly so instead of getting rid of both O/S's I would like to delete the XP
partition and extend the Vista partition into the empty space.

My question is how do I remove the XP dual boot info from the Vista boot
files so it will let me delete the partition?
