First thing..

NEVER DUAL BOOT WITH 1 PARTITION!!

It's a mess and conflicts a ton of things, make a second partition or install to a different drive as Clean Install.

That's all I can say.

I am currently running a dual boot of Whistler/Win2K. When I installed Whister, I just installed it over my Win98 as a upgrade on my laptop and it works perfectly. I still have my bootloader that works, it even has the 2 options of Whistler Personal Edition/Windows2000 Professional. I had no problems with doing an upgrade from 98 either. This OS is GREAT!!! I absolutely love it. I would love to find a newer build if anyone has a link, I would greatly appreciate a email.
