is there any way of installing Win98 after installing WinXP without removing XP???

i have winxp on drive D(FAT32). I need to install Win98 on C:(FAT32). usually u use a scnadisk and type setup at command prompt. But after doing tht u cannot use XP. (there is no option at startup). U have to reinstall the whole of XP again even though XP has not been removed from the system.

is there an alternative???

Look into partition magic, or another boot manager.

After you install 98. Boot into XP recovery console and try MBRFIX and...some other MBR command. Just type HELP in the recovery console and you'll see it.
