How to install WIN 98 after XP
Why you don't ask for help to do it before you Started?
"Drazen" wrote in message ... On my notebook i have installed WIN XPSP2 on partotion C(NTFS). Then I have created partition E on the same hard disk(D is CD drive), and format it to FAT32 situable for instalation of WIN 98. The problem for me is how to install WIN 98 to E drive, without deleting WIN XP, and with boot menu to choose which operating system want to use. I need to install WIN 98 for diagnostic software of some old devices that won´t work on WIN XP. I was thinking to solve this problem in next steps: - create an image of operating system(image of WIN XP) on NTFS file systemwith some backup and image creating software - format C partition to FAT 32 file system - install first WIN 98 on C partition - restore image of WIN XP (which is created in NTFS) to E drive which is on FAT 32 Is it possible to do it, and will the image of WIN XP work on FAT 32 system? The crucial thing is to maintain the WIN XP on it original state because of many software installed on it. Can you please help me to solve this problem with some suggestions? I would be thankful

It specifically states on Doug's web page: If your C: drive is not FAT or FAT32, you CANNOT complete this procedure. You will need a 3rd party boot manager. I recommend BootIt Next Generation, www.bootitng.com Apparently you did not read past that first line. A third-party boot manager is one obvious way to do what Drazen wants. Or is that for some reason not a satisfactory alternative to you?? Drazen also specifically mentioned the possibility of re-doing his partitions so that C: *would* be FAT32. -- Glen Ventura, MS MVP Oct. 2002 - Sept. 2009 A+ http://dts-l.net/
