Re: Vista and ME, 98, XP on System Commander 8 problems...

I was merely passing on what the vendors of System Commander were advising regarding their programme.

I am not sure I would dual boot Windows ME with Windows Vista. Surely if a computer was built for Windows ME you are going to encounter all types of hardware compatibility issues?

Hope this helps.

SC works in 2 phases. The first part resides in the mbr area of

stuff exist. I keep this in a Windows Millenium partition. IE,
its not necessary to install in Vista partition. Perhaps not
smart to do so either even if its fixed in a subsequent version
of SC.
