At the moment I have an 80 gig Hard Drive , split into 2 partitions.
C=60gig - partition 1 - currently running 'xp pro'
D=20gig - partition 2 - with the winME setup folders on it.
I have Windows XP Pro installed, on C, ( i repartitioned my 80 gig hard
drive into the 60/20 yesterday ) , and i have put windowsME on the 2nd
partition, NOT Installed, just the actual folders etc. with Setup.exe etc..
If I run the setup.exe file, I get the message that Operating System I am
trying to install (winME) , is OLDER than my current 1 (xp pro ), which
then just stops the setup ??
I think i have to do something with the BOOT.INI file ?? , but HOW WOULD I
INSTALL MY winME on this 2nd Psrtition, or do i need to start from scratch..
in stall winME on the C - partition , and xp on the 2nd partition (D) ?
HOW, ALSO, Do I get my PC to ask me which O/S I want to Use at Boot-Up ?
I would appreciate any Help on this, or any helpful URL's etc.. I have tried
googling etc. but i kinda get to a point that is out of my league when it
comes to pc's as i have only had 1 for 2 years. Thanks a lot .
