Would it be possible for me to keep 98 as a primary OS, install 3.1 on my secondary hard disk D:\ and then reboot windows 98 into DOS mode, switch over to my D:\ drive and then boot Windows 3.1 off it? I'm beginning to realize that for shareware and early CD-ROM Titles that Windows 3x is much better suited than Windows 9x. That being said I only have one suitable system for both so I need to choose and I do more in 9x than I would 3x so it makes sense for me to do this only if I retain 9x on that machine.
Right now my system looks like this:
AST 640x480 VGA Monitor 14"
MSI MS-5156 Motherboard
Pentium MMX @ 200MHZ
64MB of EDO
S3 Virge DX 2MB upgraded to 4MB
Soundblaster 16 CT2830
My IDE layout is:
Primary Master: 1.2GB Seagate
Primary Slave: 20GB Seagate
Secondary Master: Creative Branded Goldstar Quad Speed Drive
Secondary Slave: Creative Branded Quad Speed of unknown make.
Is this idea feasible and if so what would I need to do to make this work as I intend for it to?
