Hi.

I have a WinME
On my hard drive I created second primary partition and then installed second OS - Win2000.
Win2000 works OK.

I have a another problem.
I cann`t chenage active partition for going back WinME.
I use fdisk for that but it doesn`t help me.

And another question.
Both partitions have fat32, but not active partition hidden every time. Do we have any way to see all programs from one partition.

Any halp will be highly appreciated.
Thank you.
 
To have two different OS's on the same hard drive, you would need to have setup two seperate partitions in FDISK and install 2000 and ME on their own partition. Was this done? It sounds like you installed 2000 and ME on the same partition, in which case you won't boot to ME
