I have installed Win98 2nd edition in FAT32 format. I currently get a CD from win nt server and wanna ask hwo to set up to enable dual boot (with 98 and nt 4) ? thx a lot !

Just launch the Winnt cd setup from within 98. NT will use or create a new partition and automatically setup dual boot for you. Post/Reply/Explore/ Site/Forums (Homepage above) Thanks, Jesse

HI.... it is not possible to dual boot winnt 4.0 with win98 if ...it is FAT32 partition.. WINNT does not support fat32...So as per my knowledge for making dual boot with 98 ... u have to format the disk or convert the partition to fat16..(conversion of partition with partition magic is possible without data loss).. One thing more ... i am not sure if some sort of utility is available or not which can load winnt on FAT32 partition....????? Thanks

I'm doing the same thing. Try: http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q243/9/96.asp cheerios, YJ

http://www.windows2000faq.com/Articles/Index.cfm?ArticleID=13902 from John Savills' FAQ's at: http://www.windows2000faq.com - Installations section. Part of http://www.win2000mag.com Covers a hack/work-around... Ideally NT in a dual/milti-boot environment requires a FAT16 c: system (active Primary) partition; all installed M$ OS's install their boot/start-up files there; the actual OS's themselves go into separate partitions/logical-drives (and can be their preferred? file formats)... Post #3279 gives a 'how to set it up from scratch'; it works for both NTWS and NTSvr; credit to the chap who posted it... Only modification I'd add; include a shared FAT16 logical-drive for common accessed data; create it between the NT and '98 logical-drives. NT cannot 'see' FAT32; '9x cannot 'see' NTFS. There 'are' utils that get around this problem. If not using the work-around/hack, or starting from scratch... then you are into a third-party add-in boot-manager... PM6x has Boot-magic. http://www.xosl.org - offers a freebie - it gets good reports...
