Help! I have a compaq Presario 5004US..I installed another 2nd 60gig.hard drive in it..I have it set up with Windows Me in it and it is setting in d:\ drive..But I can't boot it up...It keeps booting up on c:\ drive were the first hard drive is....I have the first hard drive set master and the second is set up in slave...Can someone tell me how to install a Dual Boot System or some way were I can choose which one I want to boot up...... Thanks......

Since both operating systems you have installed are on the 9x platform, you are going to need some sort of boot loader.
Partition Magic by PowerQuest includes BootMagic, which will help you set up a dual boot with two DOS based operating systems.
There are also freebies out there... such as:
Which are both well known in the Linux world, but not so much on the Windows side.
The 9x platform does not include any way to natively set up a dual boot. You are going to have to install some sort of third party boot loader in order to boot to that secondary drive.
