I believe all of my applications I need are going to work with WIN2k so I want to do a clean install of WIN2k. I have no desire to have WINME on my system. If later I do find something that will not work in Y2k (I've done pretty thorough testing) and I need to install WINME, will the dual boot choice automatically be setup for me.

Thanks for anyones info

Hmm.. that's a tough one.

I have installed it after Windows2000, however, I didn't install WIndows 2000 on the C drive. If you do install 2000 on the root C drive, you might have a problem. However, given the vast resources on here, I'm sure someone has done it correctly :)

Yes Win2k will set up a dual boot, but you will want to put in a partition.
If you use partition magic you do need a special boot disk for win2k.

the first partition must be fat or fat32

and when you install winme I think there is a /ntldr switch
you should use
