Installing Windows XP with Millennium Edition
My computer currently has the ME operating system. I would
like to install and run the XP operating system. How do I go about doing this? Will I run two operating systems at one time? Do I need to back up all my files? Some one told me that there is an XP overlay that I can download and run with ME. Please send instructions on how to do this. Thank you, Eric |

Thank you, Eric Upon installation of XP you will be given the option of "upgrade" or "new install". If you do not want to lose any of your old data....choose upgrade. If you want to start over.........choose new install. Note: New Installs are always more stable, and present less problems down the road. I don't know what you mean by "overlay". You can also run Me AND XP on the same machine, if you install XP to a different partition. At boot you will be able to choose what OS you want to boot into. Sound advice is to dump Me all together though..... it's a dog. §kullywag©- |
