In the Win2K OS, look in the HELP folder (start/help). Under the Index tab type "dual boot" If I remember correctly there will be detailed instructions. Or use the search slot at the top of this page. Type in the same lead-in (dual boot) and then select Win2000 and hit "go search" This question must have 300 responses in the archives of this site.
