I would avoid putting it on the same drive/partition as Win9x. The shared 'Program Files' directory will give you problems.
 
As long as 9x is installed first, then Whistler on a different drive, you will not have any problems. If you want to access Whistler from 9x, format it FAT32, not NTFS.

Guys im using Winoncd 3.7 and need to know how to make a bootable cd of the Whistler beta so that I may install it on a freshly formated HD. I have the whole beta but its not in ISO format.
