I installed WinXP on ntfs and then Win98 on fat32. Two different hdd le, same like zy.

When boot up, just press F8, then it will ask which hdd you want to boot from. But on one same hdd... impossible I think except with some boot software installed.

Hello. I don't want to create a new thread and i write there. I want install Win98 but i already have WinXP installed. When i want install from rebooting win98 wants to install to the C:. Question: Can i install win98 to my hard disk without changing WinXP file system or modifying WinXP? I don't want to reformat C: disk because there is WinXP, and my file system is NTFS. Do i have chances to install win98 or not?

The answers is already in the thread.

And if you are lazy to read, which seems like it, the answer is no.
