Dual boot

Let say I have Windows Xp already installed. I wanna install win 98 or win 95 on my computer. I have partitioned my hard disk into C (containing winxp) and then D.
Possible to do so without any conflicts or issue? Thanks!

Just install it in a separate partition lor.
Don't install it in the same one, it will corrupt your Windows XP. -

Want to install and play jing yong qun xia zhuan.. a great classic -
Nope, in this case. You can ONLY INSTALL XP AFTER INSTALLING WINDOWS 95/98.Originally posted by DriftingGuy:I know.. but the issue here is:
Can I install win 95/98 after I already install win xp liao?
If can, then I just go about installing the normal way? Like load CD and install in Drive D etc..You must install Windows XP only after installing MS-DOS, Windows 95, or Windows 98 to prevent MS-DOS or Windows 95 from overwriting the Windows XP boot sector and the Windows XP startup files

Using USB right?Originally posted by dork3d:Okie, tried with my portable harddisk with XP Pro installed, the computer doesn't recognise and runs from the internal harddisk...
USB only works after the OS is booted up, as it is a driver on its own.
You need to run from either CD or hard disk... -
Should be able to... only thing is whether MS wants it or not.Originally posted by M©+square:Can set bios to boot from slave HDD? -

My Ipod when connected onto Laptop when i bootup, will not read from internal drive. It read from Ipod drive, which is zero OS. So the black screen stayed, internal HDD didn't move also.
