Please help!

I just want to know, if Windows 2000 and Windows Xp can be
loaded in a computer on different partitions??

Can you do multi-booting with these two operating system??

t.q!
 
Yes, you can. You have two options:
- Load Win2000 first, then WinXP. No further changes will be necessary.
- Load WinXP first, then Win2000. You must now replace the following
hidden files with their equivalents from the WinXP CD:
c:\ntldr, c:\ntdetect.com.

Certainly, one can dual-boot Win2K and WinXP.
