I would like to change the order in which I boot M.E. XP & I want it the
other way round. As I have most of my info on XP & would like to use that
now more than the other. So I want it to boot to it first.So can some one
tell me, what do you have to do to change it please?

Edit your c:\boot.ini file (it may be hidden...and you'd have to turn on
view hidden files first)

You can edit your Boot.ini as mention'd or under XP
Right click my computer > properties > advanced > Settings
(startup and recovery) Top of the list Select what you want.
