Hi,
Personnally, I've must have Win98 because my scanner,an HP Scanjet 3300C, don't work under win2k (drivers must be developped for this summer).
When I've install win2k first, I try after to install win98 and it was impossible.
So, I've first install win98 in my D drive (one of my 3 partitions), and after install win2k on the c partition. But, if you do this you must run the install from win98, or the 2k installation will failled.
Now I've a system really stable, in w2k like in w98 (crazy, is'nt it ? )
