"System Out of Memory " - but is it really...? 2004-02-01 - By DRxDON

Hi Kris and Owen,
I'm not sure I know what you guys are talking about! :-)
I have a system that is about two years old; Asus MB with built-in
Ultra DMA 100 and a 40GB Maxtor HD. I installed a dual boot system
using Win2K and Win98 on two separate partitions and had no problems
at all!
Kris, you have to have either two separate disks or two partitions
on the same disk, one for each system. Also, you have to start with
a "clean" newly formatted disk and install Win2K first and then
install Win98. Too bad if you already have a single disk with Win98
and a lot of programs. If you want to save your Win98 system, you'll
HAVE to get another disk. :-(
