I recently had vista and xp running as a dual boot - VISTA=C:/ XP=D:/(on a pre-installed Vista). I have now removed XP from D:/ but in the boot menu whenever i restart my computer the XP entry is still there. How can i remove the XP entry from the boot menu?

You need run bcedit.exe from the command prompt or run box

In XP you can follow these instructions:

Control Panel > System > Advanced > Startup and Recovery (Settings) > System Startup (Edit)

then just delete the line with Windows XP. I think it's similar in Vista, not sure.
