Who can tell me where is the boot manager when you have installed WINDOWS ME and WINDOWS 2000. (which file in windows me) Because now, i can't use my 2000 because the boot manager doesn't propose me my windows 2000 partition (because i used another hard disk to make something one).

Basic and Dynamic disks

Pikey
Is it possible to dual boot (on two separate physical disks) a basic disk (Win98) and a dynamic disk (Win2000) with both OS's recognising each other on boot? I know that a partitioned disk won't support this configuration.

Download RealMedia

Does anyone know of a program that will download RealMedia files, instead of streaming them? Not just the shortcuts, but the actualy file, so I can view it offline. Thanks, -bZj.

Speak French Now! 7 compatibility?

ET
I got Learn To Speak French, which I installed on Windows 2000 with some limited success (I get error reports, and speech recognition doesn't work, but I can learn something). I'm planning to try to coax it a bit more, but I'm also thinking of getting Speak French Now! 7, instead.
