Thanks for the reply. I followed a lot of disjointed info on the Microsoft
help site and did the following. I have two hard drives, a Seagate 40 (C
and a WD 20 (D. I partitioned the 40 to 31 (partition 1) and 9 (partition
2). Microsoft was imperative about the order for loading so I set up Me
first on partition 2. At that point it would boot into Me without problem.
I then installed XP on partition 1. I then had to modify boot.ini to list
the send version (Me). The operating systems listing looks like this
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Micro soft
Windows XP Home Edition"
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINDOWS="Micro soft
Windows Millennium Edition"
When I boot I have the list of choices for both of those. It will boot
without problem into XP but when I select the Me it will not boot but comes
up with the "hal.dll" error. I have followed Microsoft's Knowledge Base
suggestions and booted from the XP CD and used 'bootcfg'. Scan and list
does not find the Me installation. The only way I have found to get the
entry into the boot.ini is to enter it manually. That kind of states the
problem.

What would be the best forum to post a message for help about setting a
computer up with dual boot of XP and Me?
