The best way in my view is to get a partitioning program and boot manager.
The partitioning program allows you to create a second primary partition on the hard drive upon which you can install the second system. The boot manager allows you to select which system will boot when you start the PC. This is what I use: BootIt Next Generation is available from: http://www.terabyteunlimited.com/ and it does partitioning, makes a compressed image, does many other partitioning chores and is a boot manager. It is not quite as easy to use as Partition Magic but it is half the cost and has more features. Unlike the crippled PMagic demo, BING is a *full function* demo you can try for FREE for 30 days. The web site has a lot of support articles. -- Regards Ron Badour, MS MVP for W98 Tips: http://home.satx.rr.com/badour Knowledge Base Info: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?pr=kbinfo wrote in message ... how do i go about installing two operating sytems |

Depends a bit on which two. As an example if you install win98 on one
partition and then install winXP on another winXP will automatically set up the bootmanager to allow selection of operating system you want to use during boot. -- Jon Hildrum DTS MVP www.hildrum.com wrote in message ... how do i go about installing two operating sytems |
