Hello
I would like to know if Win98 will work at all on this board with one hd
(sata) I would like to dual boot win98 and XP.
I would like to have 98 on for maximum compatibility with some older games,
and a space orb controller. Plus does this make sense at all, I'll patition
the hd with fdisk, make a small partition for 98, one big one for games, and
a third one for XP. The first two partions fat 32, and the XP partition
NTFS. Will having XP on NTFS and installing games on a partion with fat32
work well?

It should work but you will have to set bios to use compatibility mode and
turn off HT.
