Can I make a new partition on a HD and do a fresh install from the DOS prompt in that partition?

That's great, Jeff. I'll give it a try.

Thanks

Steve

Yes - that's exactly the way this type of boot manager works. Except that
you'll already have the choice of which partition to boot to _before_
installing Windows - that's how you got BootitNG to boot you into that new
pristine partition before you did the Windows install. So if you make the
same selection you did for the install, you'll get the newly installed
Windows.

For the OE problem, look at Tools / Option / Send / Include message in
reply.

Okay Jeff,

If I understand your answer, I can use BootitNG boot to my newly
created partition on my new hard drive and I can install a pristine
Windows
98 there. Then when I turn on my computer again and get Bootit's menu,
I'll
have a choice of the new or the old Windows. Right?

By the way how do you get the previous message to show up in Outlook
Express?

Thanks for taking the time Jeff,

Steve

I want a clean install on my new D: drive

Dunno what good it would be but switch drive positions on IDE cable
(and drive jumper if not cable select) and install it. Switch stuff
back after.
