Hi Bill, Windows 98SE needs a FAT partition I believe. Did you set up a
FAT partition for it? It might also need that partition being within the
first 120GB of the drive. Setting up dualboot is indeed possible, but
the installer will likely setup it up all wrong if you install an older
Windows version last. But it is indeed fixable.

If you mean fat16 when you say FAT no. I formatted a fat32.
