      Installing Win2K when I have XP

      Hi. I upgraded Win2K to XP and I am quite unhappy with it - there are stacks of bugs even after installing upgrades and tweaks. Mostly with Internet Explorer and Windows Explorer - lots of crashes. How can I revert back to Win2K as there is no uninstall feature or rollback option in the Control Panel. Alternatively, how do I put Win2K on my system aswell so I can choose at bootup to use 2K or XP? Anyone who can help quite quickly? I am desparate!

      Thanks.

      The better way to have 2 OS in the same pc is in different HD, and change in the bios setup to boot from one or another. But if you have only one HD or you use frequently both OS, this is not a confortable choice. So the best way is using a boot loader software. Windows xp has his own, you have to install the oldest OS first and then windows xp, but you still may have problems. The best way is using a third part boot loader soft, like System Commander, who can "hide" one OS from each other.

      roll back isn't possible, but you can setup W2k additional (in another partition);
      take a look in the windows help file, search there for "Multiple Boot"
