Re: Multiboot 2000 and XP

In a perfect world I want to be able to repair the Win2K multiboot problems between XP and Win2K.


Then the link to the Win2K registry tool that I gave you originally would be the way to go. The longest part of the process (@15 minutes) would be downloading the files and creating the diskettes. The actual repair takes only a few minutes.


If I can’t do that in a timely manner I may have to simply copy all the data from my current C: format and reinstall Win2K and the one 16bit program I need to function and call it a day.


That would take a couple hours, at least... Even a repair installation of Win2K would take less time.
