Title: WinMe and Win2K
Post by: Slider on June 11, 2001, 05:49:31 AM

Hi,
I have a dual boot system with WinMe and Win2K, and I hate WinMe.. is there anyway of getting rid of it and installing Win98se but keep my dual boot?
I had been told that I would have to format both partitions and start all over again.

you may be able to make an recovery disk using the backup tool, backup your boot.ini and bootsect.dos to a SAFE place and re-install 98.

then use the 2000 boot cd to \"Repair\" your 200 instalation theis should replace the bootsector and if you use your recovery disk everything should be bootable.
