Have a 3rd party boot manager. Am using 98SE most of the time. XP HE SP2
is installed an working.

In lieu of MS lack of support of 98SE at the end of this year, anticipate
moving my apps to XP. Office 2K, Mailwasher Pro, Adsubtract Pro am not real
sure about. Am very doubtful about Norton Cleansweep 2001 and Quickview
Plus 7.0. Anyone know where I can find out?

Cleansweap might be a LITTLE questionable. Since Windows XP is
essentialy a latter version of Windows NT, utilities compatable with
Windows NT and the NTFS file system should be able to work with the file
system BUT there could be some new registry keys in Windows XP that a
Windows NT/2000 utility wouldn't recognize. It would be safer to stick
with Microsoft's built in cleanup and Add/Remove functions or upgrade to
a new version of Cleansweap (if it's available) that specifies XP
compatability.

I don't see where Quickview Plus 7 would need to do anything Windows XP
would break (or break XP). It should be able to access all the files
through the normal OS hooks. Version 8 lists just about every Windows
version (95 through XP) as compatable.

QuickView Plus version 4.01 works in XP Pro so I would expect version
7.0 would too.
