I have xp corp on my D: driver now and my C: is free. I cant install windows 98 while using xp. I dont have a bootable win98 cd. I have tried running it through the dos too but my computer only has one bay so either floppy or cd rom is gonna be out. Is there a way i can install Windows 98?? :rolleyes:

VMware is sort of like Microsoft Virtual PC or Connectix Virtual PC. They emulate a PC on your desktop.

VMware workstation 4 from the makers site and then look for the serial on google. It's a lot smoother and faster than virtual PC. It doesn't waste any hard drive space either because the emulated hard drive uses dynamic partitions. It only gets as big as the installed software.

go to http://www.bootdisk.com and download the boot disk for it and it should work out fine.

You can also make or download small images to burn for a boot cd. :D
