Personally, I would forego the dual boot setup. So far,
I haven't found anything that doesn't run on Win2k. I've
even intalled a few games and they perform without
problems. However, I'd give up all the games for a
machine that is stable with my trading software and
MS office programs.
Installed Win2k on 3 machines at my home. Several weeks
apart so that I could ease into it and ensure myself that
I would be happy with the new OS.
Had trouble convincing the setup program to delete a
partition and do a fresh install on one of the machines.
Finally, allowed it to do an upgrade which led to a dual
boot situation where it would boot to Win98 or Win2k. Did
not tolerate that for long. Used a boot floppy with fdisk
on it to delete partition myself and then set Bios to boot
from CDrom and install Win2k. Worked like magic. (Of
course I backed up data files to a network drive before
deleting the partition.)

Subject: Need help on Win2000 instal
I am in the process of installing Win2000 on a Win ME
laptop. The setup procedure told me create a partition
for Win2000 if I want to keep Win ME and have a dual
boot system. My question is: Do I install TS2000 in
the same partition where Win2000 is in? In other
words, can I install TS2000 in C:\program files to
avoid a large partition for Win2000?
Thank you for your help
