Archived from groups: microsoft.public.win2000.setup (More info?)

Hello,

First, please have a look at:

95,
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=217210

This article describes how to configure an Intel-based computer to multiple
boots Microsoft operating system, including How to do, What to do and What
not to do. So I think it can be of assistance in your issue, but I still
considering it as a bad idea.

Thank you for using Microsoft Newsgroup.
