Generally, if you plan to have a multiple-OS-system it´s a good idea to have a 10-50 MB FAT Partition C: as boot-partition. If you have one like that (personally I prefer not to have my swap files in this partition) you don´t have any problem installing W98 after W2k or the other way round. You don´t even need to repair any boot files in addition. Both OS boot (and work) without any problems afterwards. Llion

I´ve often read that you have to completely deinstall the old TNT drivers before you install new ones. Since my 3.96 don´t work (at least with Drakan) I would like to know how to perform a complete deinstallation of the old 3.66. Isn´t it enough to simply deinstall it in the device manager? Thanks in advance Llion

At least Drakan, which worked fine with 3.66 doesn´t work anymore with 3.69. Other games I haven´t tested. Have fun! Llion

Hi, Microtek SCSI Scanner Scanmaker-Series works fine under W2k, the normal NT drivers do the trick! (By the way: optically these scanners give the optimum results in MHO) Llion

If you read the readme-files delivered on the CD you will find hints on bual-booting 98 and 2k. In one of them you will find that you can install 98 after 2k without any probs. I tried it myself half an hour ago and it works. (I set up a 30 meg partition DOS (active, 1st partition C) as boot partition) Just install 98 after 2k, it will show both entries at bootup time. I was really astonished to see that work so fine. I did not need any MBR repairing or anything else after the installation! Llion

Yes, you have to! C´mon guys, its getting boring to see the same questions 40 times and more in the same newsgroup!! What do you expect: you can read the answer to your question often in the group. Does each of you want to be feed extra?? Don´t be too lazy to read through the existing postings as any one of us does when entering a new group. To summarize: ALL of the CD-burning SW needs a ASPI-driver. So generally it´s good to install one and if you beliefe it or not: Get the newest one! Get it from Adaptec if you have got Adaptec controller or Software in your system. Or if not get it from your controller´s manufacturer or look in the other postings - there the advice other free ASPI-drivers (though don´t you expect too much of those) NERO: 4.0.7.x works OK, the versions below can give you troubles. So get the update to 4.0.7.0 or above (per 06.Nov.1999 it´s 4.0.7.5) and don´t grumble around with versions that are known to be problemactic (if you have read the 20 postings about this theme) and ask 20 further times if the non-working version can´t be set to work though. By the way: you get the update to 4.0.7.x for free at www.ahead.de you don´t even have to proof you are a legal user-though I expect that ;-) And delete/rename that nerocdnt.sys from windows\system32 before rebooting. Win on CD: works fine if you pay attention and delete any C2ASPI files if existent - also before rebooting. (Since Adaptec bought CeQuadrat they are delivering original Adpatec ASPI-drivers with the application and no more the NT- and W2K-buggy C2ASPI. So don´t be surprised id you don´t find that C2ASPI files in your system. ) OK? Enjoy your life Llion
