Running 4.0 on-line with my company.  Have a large SCSI stand-alone - empty.  Can I somehow load Windows 98 on the SCSI - and run it separately?
 
Yes I do it.&nbsp;&nbsp;See if you can do it from NT.&nbsp;&nbsp;I always install 9X first then NT but it should work that way too.&nbsp;&nbsp;You know about NTFS, FAT 16 & 32 issues I'm sure.<br>John Durbin
 
Create an rescue disk set for NT before installing 98 cos it has been known to recreate the boot partition information and ignore NT.<br><br>Your only issue is getting 9x to recognise the SCSI on the way in.
