Not clear........u can't install two copies in the same directory... if u r seing two windows xp when u r booting, delete the other one from the boot.ini file

go to system properties ->Advanced -> start up and recovery, settings -> edit start up file manually...

before editing, save a copy of the original file

I think he has re-installed XP but since /windows directory was already there , it installed in a mew /windows0 directory. I remeber this happening a long time ago myself.
