I have a PC with Windows XP Home. I just purchased
Windows ME. Can I install Windows ME on the same PC that
is currently running Windows XP to get a Multiboot setup?
What do I need to do first?

Thanks in advance!

Why would you want to use an older (and a LOT inferior) version of Windows
when using XP? What you want to do can easily be done, but you really need
to install ME first and THEN install XP. Doing it the other way around can
be fiddly and not recommended, especially if you're a novice...

ME was quite probably the worst version of Windows ever (MS don't even like
it). If I were you, I take it back to the store for a refund... XP can run
everything the ME can, and it can do it a lot better...

I am running software for a Teradyne tester and it uses EMM386.SYS and to my knowledge, no one has ever had it working in anything else but Windows ME and 95/98. Any Ideas?

Thanks in advance!
