MsConfig <-- Tiny Problem...

Ok this isn't a totally system affecting problem
I have Windows XP
but i recently had to use msconfig(system configuration utility) to go into safe mode, then i used it to get back to normal mode
before i ever used this feature my conputer would load up without a black screen that had settings on it like when you go into safe mode
- example: that black screen comes up and it has like 3 selections for what mode ur going to and safe mode is selected
Now it comes up and normal is selected
i want to fix this so it goes back to what i did before i used it
so what im trying to ask is, what are the defaults for ms config on the
General tab
and
BOOT.INI tab

Howdy:

Go to msconfig.. Now, on the first screen, make sure "Normal Startup" is selected.. Apply and okay out.. Reboot..

I don't know if this will help any, but here's my 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


My Windows XP boots right into Windows. You can edit the BOOT.INI in the mscong.exe if need be.
