Theoretical Question
I have Windows 2000 on my computer currently and I want to install a copy of Windows ME. The biggest obstical is that I already have Windows 2000 installed. My question is what is the best way to instal ME on my computer without having to wipe my drive. As I understand it ME will have to be on the boot partition. It is this limitation that I don't understand.
Would it be possible to install ME to a second partition rewrite the MBR with 2000 and then edit the boot.ini file to reflect the ME installation? |

You would have to install ME on the C: partition/drive, then run a console repair on 2000 and typle fixboot and fixmbr.

ME is fussy - it must be on C.
