Added Operating System

My Dell XPS 600 has three separate hard drives.  I am using SATA Drive 0 for my Win XP.  I would like to add Win 98SE on SATA drive 1 to run some programs that are not suitable for Win XP.  Is this possible to setup a dual boot for two drives forr these operating systems?

    Right-click a shortcut to the Win98 software and select Properties. Click Compatibility tab and set it to Win98. See if the software now runs under XP. ;)

    Hi there,

     

    Of course you can add 2 hdd on your xps computer but if you want Win 98 to run on you xp computer then got to the folowing link and install this prog called  MICROSOFT VIRTUAL PC 2007 and you can run multiple operating systems no need for a dual boot:

    I am using win vista,xp and ubuntu on same computer.

     

    Regards,
