Q: I installed Windows XP on my computer. Now I want to install Windows 98 on drive D. After following the operation in the book, Win98 runs normally, but the system option is not selected after the boot. I use the XP installation disk to enter the fault recovery station and use the "fixboot C: "The required option appears. You can choose to enter Win98 to see" access the Boot Sector file multi (0) disk (0) rdisk (0) partition (1) ootsect. an I/O error occurs during dos ". But WinXP is normal. I don't know what's going on? How can I modify the system to use two systems?
A: The method you used to create a Dual Boot is incorrect. Using the fixboot command will corrupt the Win98 boot information recorded in drive C. The correct method is: after Win98 is installed on an existing Windows XP System Computer, run the installation program under Win98 on the XP installation CD. After copying the XP installation file, the multi-Start Menu is automatically displayed when you restart the system for the first time. Do not select "Mirosoft windows XP Professional installer", but select "Start Win98". After Entering Win98, use NotePad to open BOOT under the C-drive root directory. INI file, change the content behind the row where "default =" is located to "multi (0) disk (0) rdisk (0) partition (1) windows", and then "C: $ win_nt $. ~ BT = "Microsoft Windows XP Professional installer" and "multi (0) disk (0) rdisk (0) partition (1) windows =" Microsoft Windows XP Professional "", save the disk and restart it. Of course, you 'd better restart and delete all the folders starting with $ in the C root directory.
