I would suggest you to do a 'clean installation'. This is to avoid unnecessary problems later on.

As regards those 'already installed programs', why can't you just re-install them? However, don't forget to back up all your data.


Cheers

155375 2003-06-28 04:27:00 Yeah Murray, it is possible to survive with both on the one HDD, but its not recommended.. Ive done it with Win2K and 98.. Both got a bit jumpy about using the Onboard sound in 98 and my SB!Live card.. and WinAmp.. remembering certain things..
It was alright though I guess :-)

Mind you I rarely went back to 98 so maybe didn't notice anything amiss, ignorance is bliss ;) Your right it was probably only a matter of time if I'd persisted, got me over my kakorrhaphiophobia tho :O

Cheers Murray ;P

Try Ranish Partition Manager (www.utilitygeek.com). It's not so easy to use as PartitionMagic but it should do the job without losing your data.
