I have an 8gb drive in 2 partitions. I'm running win98 with fat32. Is there away to install NT4 on my other partition and duel boot. My problem is that NT doesn't reconize the win32 fat and tries to call D drive (a fat 16 partition) C drive. When asking what partition to install it has -- in the drive letter for my win98 drive which is C drive and for D drive it says C:, but that doesn't work because it says something about an invalid partition or something very close to that (sorry I can'tr remember exactly) You can e-mail me at larry.seymour@cgy.valmet.com thanks larry

You need a boot partiition that NT can read to have a dual boot - NT doesn't recognize FAT32 - You'll need to convert your C: parttion to FAT16 Larry Seymour wrote in message ... >I have an 8gb drive in 2 partitions.
