Any problems with a XP Pro/ Win2k Dual-boot?

[MrTux]

I currently have Windows XP installed and wanted to know if there are any issues with installing Win2000 on another partition. Thanks.

Not that I know of. You should be fine. Just remember to get all the Windows 2000 drivers for your hardware. Hope this helps.

Yep, just wanted to make sure there wasn't a big problem with installing 2K on a machine where XP is already installed. Thanks

I just set the same scenario up today on my PC so I could see if I fixed a bug that kept me from using XP on my computer with my router, and the new router firmware did, too, but that's another story (I'll be going to only XP tomorrow). I did read, however, that it is best to install 2k BEFORE installing XP when I was reading about dual-booting the two. Not sure if that's true, but that's how I did it....

Good Luck!

No problem, but you might want to read this FAQ just in case: How do I repair a WinXP and Win2K dual boot?
