    Hi,
    need to install WinNT WS on a machine with Win2k pro and server already installed.
    if I just install WinNT in a separate dir will I still be able to boot the two Win2k installs?
    I seem to recall that that doesn't work, because you have to install the most recent OS last - ie WinNT would have to installed first.
    1) am I right?
    -edit-
    Not really. it's only a problem if 95,98 or ME are involved. they do overwrite the mbr.
    it's fine with NT and 2K. in case anyone else is wondering.
    -edit-
