Dual Boot

I have WINxp in my 80G HD. I'd like to install another HD
with WIN98SE. Assuming that I have the hardwares connected
right and recognized in the Bios, is there going to be an
incompatability problem?

Hi!Don!
The problem will not be hardware related but the problem you may face
regarding dual boot loader.As you will install Win 98SE in another HDD
then you have to keep a dual booting option,or you have to enter either
of the OS manually after entering the BIOS each time,which is not expected.
Best solution is to use Boot NG
;Visit:-http://www.terabyteunlimited.com/ and enjoy both the OS.

In addition to BootIt NG, which is a great product, if your XP hard disk is
FAT32, its possible to install 98 after the fact, without 3rd party
software. See my web site, www.dougknox.com and go to Win XP Tips

For Win9x/Me: Install 98/Me after XP is Installed.
For Windows 2000: Install Windows 2000 after XP is installed.
