Re: Optiplex hook up problems

you could start a new treat but this fix is a quicky but just be carefull and very accurate.
right click my computer>properties>advace tab>startup and recovery settings
[here you will see a Edit Tab click it]-

a notepad will open with something like this

[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS9
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS9="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect

multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS8="Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect


you delete the line that states windows 2000 Professional[in red that is]
note-the line that states windows 2000 professional in your case
---
further more you can delete the windows folder in the Root of your C:/ drive if it is on the same partition or format the different partition
