Hi, Is it possible 2 have 2 hard drives 1 for booting into Win 98 and the
other booting into Win Xp. I have had no luck so far, I keep getting the
win98 drive
and I have no choice to boot into the win xp.
Thanks
Arthur

Certainly you can dual-boot. Install Win98 on the first hard drive. Then
install XP on the second one. A quick Google for "dual-boot Windows 98
Windows XP" brings up over a million hits.

Hello "Malke" thanks for your reply, I have tried that already :-(( but it
still booted up into Win98, I used to have 2 boot systems on my old drive C:
was Winxp and D: was Win98, so when I booted the computer I had a choice to
choice boot into Win Xp or Win98. T.I.A
Regards
Arthur

Then you're doing something wrong. Go to some of the many links in the
Google search I gave you or directly to the link that Bob I gave you.
