I have upgraded my sons computer from (8 to Xp. He has
programs that need 98 to work, I know it is possible to
specify which OS to load but I cant get it to work.
98 is on C:\
XP is on d:\

Any help will be grateful Joe
 
Well, pretty easy. Once XP is running it should load any
programs that you think need 98 (or any other Windows OS,
really) with no trouble at all!

Should that NOT be the case, well, right-click on your
shortcut to the program you want to run and then click the
"compatibility" tab. Set it to run as in "Windows 98
Compatibility Mode" from the drop-down menu.

Have fun!
