Question: by Egaeus 2003-11-06 04:52:16
Do I *really* want to taint the Windows side of my dual boot system with XP pro? I'm currently running '98, but it's about time to reinstall. I have an 800 MHz Tbird with 320 MB RAM. If so, anything I should look out for? Will it work with my Diamond Viper V770 video card? I have drivers, but don't know what they support. Is it going to hose my other FAT32 partitions? I need the stuff on those partitions. I've never installed XP before, not to mention on a multi-partition/os system, so I'm a little worried. I always tend to forget things when I back up. Anyway, feel free to leave your thoughts here. I'll be in and out. TIA for any suggestions.
