Can I reinstall Win98SE without losing my Win2kPro installation?

Expand Post »

Hi - this is really a revival of an old thread as it seems to have died in terms of interest.

In short - I have a dual boot Win98SE/Win2kPro system ( Win98SE was installed first)

Win98SE is now completely broken :cry: - almost impossible to repair as it suffered crashes during install/uninstall procedures (several times) and had to be hard-reset a number of times after locking up during uninstalls......

Can I re-install it without losing my (very nice and stable) Win2KPro install?

I know that Win98 will remove NTLDR and Boot.ini from the C:\ directory, but is this all I will need to put right to get win2K back, or is there a lot more to the story?

PLease help.....
