My Win2k is screwed, and I don't have a Emergency Disk made...
So, if any one is kind enough, please send the files to me.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the configs would have to match exactly correct?

The problem is this. I formatted the Drive where Win98SE is installed. Now I cannot access the Win2K. (I had both installed before)
Therefore, I booted from the Win2K's CD, then run the recovery command. But it says it cannot find WHERE Win2K is located. It says it needs a Emergency Disk.
So, what should I do? I don't know how to use the command console. Should I reinstall Win2K?(Which I would definitely hate to do). Or is there any other way?

I don't know.

I have two drives, one contains Windows98SE. Another has Win2k. The one I formatted is the one with Win98SE.

The one with 98 must have been your primary boot drive with These files on it

Can you unRAR files?

Plus you will have to edit the Boot.ini to point to where your 2000 was

Yes, I think I can unRAR them. So, what do I suppose to do with these files?

Boot up to a DOS disk Win98 or whatever and copy these into the root of your C: Drive..

Take the one I sent and make it look like this

[boot loader]
timeout=3
default=multi(1)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINNT
[operating systems]
multi(1)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINNT="Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional" /fastdetect

So, should I edit it to "2" instead of "1"?

So it's your Secondary Master then

Edit: oh sorry no it's still 1 because it's on your Secondary IDE channel
