Would it be possible to have a Win'2K/Win'95 dual boot setup (or Win'2K/Win'98) where Win'2K has access to all the partitions on a "big" HDD, but Win'95/98 just sees the BIOS-accessible 8GB and is prevented from accessing the rest? I'm thinking the first 8Gb could be regarded as the space in which all "shared" data must go, the remainder would be Win'2K exclusive data (and you wouldn't need to do the overlay thing). ************************************************************** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ - Archives -------TO UNSUBSCRIBE------- Reply to any of the list messages.
