For school - there is some fingerscan software that doesn't work on Windows XP ... if you want I can give you the specs, but feel free to visit www.sagem.com And second of all ... to be able to play Counter-Strike without video bullshit

Yes I did ... Quote: 1. Convert the WinXP partition to NTFS (Will then be hidden for Win98 so drive letters will not be moving around whether using Win98 or WinXP) I didn't need to do so, cause it already was NTFS. But I copied it to an NTFS partition on my extended partition hence I needed the first primary partition te become the FAT32 partition for Win98 (needs to be the first partition on the disk) and hence the fact that I already have 2 other primary partitions. And as you know there can only be 3 primary and 1 extended partition. Quote: 2. Create another primary partition Been there, done that! The first primary partition ... FAT32 Quote: 3. Set the new primary partition as active boot partition Didn't need to cause I booted from WIN98 CD! ;( Quote: 4. Boot the machine and install Windows 98 on the new primary partition Been there, done that! Quote: 5. Change the active partiton to the WinXP partition. Wasn't able to do so ... but thanx anyway I chose to reïnstall WinXP ... most of my programs and data (that are one separate partitions) aren't affected anyway ... I anyone has problems with their OS (also Linux) feel free to mail me: stefpotters@hotmail.com Good luck! P.S.: Don't believe all the crap you find on the net ... this forum is actually one of the best I've found

But not if my NTFS partition is the second logical drive on an extended partition ;( ;( ;( I've found the BEST solution of them all ... REÏNSTALL WIN XP

Quote: 2 seperate partitions without 3rd party boot-manager : 1. Convert the WinXP partition to NTFS (Will then be hidden for Win98 so drive letters will not be moving around whether using Win98 or WinXP) 2. Create another primary partition 3. Set the new primary partition as active boot partition 4. Boot the machine and install Windows 98 on the new primary partition 5. Change the active partiton to the WinXP partition. 6. Use this utility to add the Win98 to the WinXP bootmanager : I've done 1, 2, 3 and 4 How do I do step 5? Can I set the NTFS partition as an active partition with FDISK? Or are there other utilities? I've been working on it for a pretty long time. Please help me ... I need my XP for school badly and cannot start it up.
