using more than one operating system
We are having a problem with a driver for a digitizer
working properly with windows xp. I have added a partion using Fat32 to the hard drive but I cannot load my windows 98 on it. It says I need to run ms-dos first, then load windows 98. I can't seem to by-pass windows xp loading even when I use bios functions (f2) to tell the computer to boot from the windows 98 CD. Can anyone tell me how to load windows 98 on my second partion? This is a new laptop that came pre-loaded with windows xp. |

As long as your XP partition is FAT32, See my web site, www.dougknox.com and
go to Win XP Tips For Win9x/Me: Install 98/Me after XP is Installed. For Windows 2000: Install Windows 2000 after XP is installed. If your XP partition is NTFS, you'll need a 3rd party boot manager, like BootIt Next Generation, www.bootitng.com. -- Doug Knox, MS-MVP Windows XP/ Windows Smart Display Win 95/98/Me/XP Tweaks and Fixes http://www.dougknox.com -------------------------------- Associate Expert ExpertZone - http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/expertzone -------------------------------- Please reply only to the newsgroup so all may benefit.
