amdphr3@kXP Posted June 18, 2003 Share Posted June 18, 2003 Im not sure, but i think its possible, it will require u to install win98 on the 1st partition however. U will hav to install DOS/win3.1 on the second partition and it will hav to be the first os that u install. U will also need to set up a boot menu in ur autoexec.bat and config.sys files in order to be able to boot into win3.1. U need to set up the commands something similar to this (someone correct me if im wrong, its been quite a while since i done this):config.sys[common]place ne device drivers in here that u need to load in both configurations[win98]ne device drivers in here that u need to load only in win98[win31]ne device drivers in here that u need to load only in win3.1[menu]MENUITEM=win98, Start Computer with Windows 98MENUITEM=win31, Start Computer with Windows 3.1MENUCOLOR=7,0Autoexec.bat:Ne progs/commands u need to put in here goes here%goto%config:win98c:\"ur windows98 directory"\win.comgoto end:win31d:\"ur win3.11 directory"\win.comgoto end:endNote u probably wont b able to use winxp/2k/2k3 with this configuration.Also u will need a copy of dos 6.22 as win3.1 wont run on win9x/me dos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Computer Commando Posted June 19, 2003 Share Posted June 19, 2003 Guys, I want to install Windows 3.1 on one partition, and Windows 98 on another...Is this possible? Win98 on 1st partition, Win31 on 2nd partition. PartitionMagic/BootMagic to control the boot. See www.powerquest.com for more info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
