asy1mpo Share Posted September 11, 2001 if i have just installed winXp on drive C, and have formated d ready for win2k, after installing how do i set it up so that i can choose which OS to boot into ?? I have done it before somehow and it worked OK - not sure how i did it - i just installed one OS and then another OS and that seems to work Will i need to edit any boot order type file?? If so, how Thanks Link to post Share on other sites
SlashDot14 Share Posted September 11, 2001 As far as I know you cannot dual boot XP and 2k and if you can you would have to install 2k first. Link to post Share on other sites
baphomet_irl Veteran Share Posted September 12, 2001 i would say that should definitely work, ffs i tri-boot! eheh 98SE/2000/XP use partition magic, then start the install to D: - it should work - althou it might make win2k ur primary boot - but it's not that hard to edit the boot.ini hope that helps....

Jon Share Posted September 12, 2001 I boot with 2k on my c drive, that was installed first, and devils own on my d drive, installed 2nd. As they are both versions of NT 5 , I dont think the install order will matter. And changing the boot order is easy, its in control panel> system > performance > boot options (If my memory is working right). Or just edit the boot.ini file! Jon Link to post Share on other sites
