Recently I had to restore my laptop Windows XP using the bootup disk, and
now when I turn on the computer it has a new window, which is black
background with white writing and gives me 2 choices to start windows then
counts down seconds before going to the next window....How do I eliminate
this window and return to like it was when the before the computer was
restored?
