Hi, All
I am having a problem dual booting WIN98 (factory istalled) & NT Workstation 4.0. Whenever I try to install NT I get the following error message:"Setup can not detect any hard drives"
This is the deal. I have two hard drives configured as a Primary Master (WIN98, FAT32, 6.8GB [3.6GB loaded with applications], C:\) and a Primary Slave (for NT 4.0, FAT16, 1.99GB [x7], D-J:\). On the Primary Slave, the D:\ is the primary partition with the remainder as extensions. Both hard drive specifications are NT 4.0 compatible.
Objective
1. Retain the Primary Master setup (WIN98, FAT32, C:\)
i. Avoid re-installing WIN98
ii.Keep most, if not all, of currently installed applications
2. Install NT on Primary Slave (NT 4.0, FAT16, 1.99GB [x7], D-J:\)
3. Avoid as much pain as possible!
Tools
1. Partition Magic 6.0
2. Patience (albeit low, and ebbing)
Steps (please provide a 'dummy' style walk through)
1.
2.
etc.
I would greatly appreciate it if someone could give a detailed installation procedure from the information that I have provided. I have searched many forums, and read many articles without finding a concise set of instructions. Thanks.
