Get parition magic, go to install a new OS. Select the os you want. Set the patition how big you want it, it is going to set a new partition for you, and make it active. reboot again with whatever OS you want to install&#39;s disk in the drive. Install it on the new partition that you just made.

You now have two os&#39;s, all you need is something to let you choose what partition to boot into, this is called a boot loader, partition magic comes with boot magic, and it works ok, but needs to be installed on a fat32 partition (it can be speperate from your two os partitions, which I recommed, just make a small fat32 partition)

Linux is a bit diffrent but it has been to long since I installed it to tell you exactly how, but it is pretty easy it does most it for you.

Search for PowerQuest Partition Magic Pro 8.It includes everything you need.Partition Magic, Boot Magic, Data Keeper .. etc

Do a search on Kazaa or IRCspy (http://www.ircspy.com), you&#39;ll find it for sure.

I have to OS on one PC. Windows 98 (C:&#092;) & Windows XP Professional (D:&#092;).WinXP works better with NTSC but you&#39;ll need FAT32 for Win98.

ATTENTION: Never make two different formats on one HDD (for example FAT32 & NTSC on one HDD)

What the hell is NTSC. I think you mean NTFS.

Ive only used full versions of partition magic.

Are the demo versions limited in functunality or are they complete versions that allow you to use them for a limited time? If so, then its cool to go ahead and download that and use it as long as it works like a full copy for the time being.:rolleyes:
