HDD .dir's and dual boot???

Ok, bit of a story first, I know, there always is with me. Those at the [NTHW] clan LAN party know the basics, for the rest of you, here goes.

In my 04.30 hrs drunken stuper, I decided it would be a good idea to try a new copy of XP that I had aquired, I have to HDD's a 40 and a 80 Gig C & D respectively, I disconected my C drive and stuck in another 40 GiG HDD ( thanks KP ) half to three quarters the way through the install sleep deprivation got the better of me and I left the install running.

Now, when I woke up it seemed that XP had tried to install itself again on my D drive, there are no folders to be seen to back this theory up, but on boot up I get a dual boot option, both options take me to this new version of XP, or did untill I deleted a folder off the D drive name of $ROOT$ I still have this folder in the recycle bin if needs be.

Now what I'd like to know is....

1) how do I go about removing the dual boot option
2) how would I find and remove any unwanted files from D drive that are
causing this dual boot option.

TIA
