Hey Debra,

In case you want to change that label from NT to read XP it's very simple.

Boot into Linux and login as root in a shell, edit lilo.conf, find the label=NT and just change the NT to read XP or WinXP or whatever you want, and then run lilo.  

Next time it should come up the way you like it!  If you need more info, don't hesitate to ask!

Tabatha
