I Just find out you can run windows 98,95,2000,linux etc. while using eg. xp
simply download program called "VMware Workstation"
you can download it by kazaa or klick here (http://www.VMware.com) :D

you can run as many os's as you like and you do not need any extra software to do so.
fdisk

and the nt bootload is all you really need ;)

I do this so i can work in linux. I recommend it. Just dont think you can play games on it. There is a performance hit, and it might not be as good as the host os.

Thanks Lowik!

That will depend on how fast/ good system is. If you bought it a month ago or less time, you should be fine. :rolleyes:
