So how to do it ?

I tried EasyBCD but I can't execute it for some reason I don't know. I want to remove that entry from XP or I am shown with new bios of windows7 I want to get my old bios screen of windows XP.

Can you get into XP? If so, go to c:\ and edit the boot.ini file and delete the line that refers to windows 7

typical boot.ini

[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOW S
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Micro soft Windows XP Professional" /fastdetect

dual boot.ini

multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Micro soft Windows 7" /fastdetect

What you need to do is delete the line that refers to windows 7 so that there is only 1 entry under
[operating systems]

Hope this helps out

I dun get it, I think windows7 uses defferent Bios or something because I have to select XP twice once the windows7 bios (with one header on top and a heard at bottom) and normal XP without a highlighted header.

The BIOS is a chip on the mother board that controls the interaction between your other hardware and the operating system. So what operating system you have does NOT affect the BIOS.

It sounds like you created a dual boot situation, but not through the boot.ini but through some other software.
