I do have two H/D both IBM deskstars ones got 98 installed the other 2k.
I have bios set to auto,just a simple matter to swop disks and reboot.
The only reason I have 2k installed was to run both cpu,s,
I am going to put new motherboard and cpu in the machine.
Problem I had was, I could not configure the 98 disc to be slave of the 2k disk or visa vera, tried all ways the machine refused to boot.
cant transfer files from one disk to the other, so I would rather have both disc's running 98.
I simply want to delete win 2k from the disc and replace it with 98.
without losing the rest of the stuff on the disc.
In 98 there is the option to remove windows in the add remove utility.
There doesn't appear to be that option in win2k.
Dont think the win98 settup will allow you to install a older operatin system than the one installed.
