I have install BeOS 5 PE on a WinXP Pro (Athlon 900) and i can't boot on BeOS(with floppy)error : can't find operating system...
I have read that Windows XP Overwrites BeOs Boot Manager on a Multiboot System but with the floppy it should be working...
Thanks Julien.
(excuse me for my english)

I had that problem you need to put in a win98 boot disk and type 'fdisk /mbr'
Then install Be and it should be fine.
