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.


True But his pc to new a 64 bit os
and his Ram will be to Big too

But Windows 98 will run good on a
Microsoft Virtual PC 2007.

Too much memory? Do you mean win98se wouldn't be able to manage today's
memory? I agree. But it should work. And what's 64 bit processor registers
got to do with anything? It should still run.
