I am working on my dream of getting a working build of every major windows release. To that end I have 5 pc's.
My gameplan:
PC1: Dos 6.22 and Win3.1
PC2: Win95 & NT4.0
PC3: Win98SE, 2000 & WinME
PC4: WinXP, Vista & Win7
PC5: Win8.1 & Win10
I started working on the 3rd PC for the last couple of weeks. The hard disks are like this:
Drive 1, 120GB, 2 partitions:
C:\ Primary Master, 60GB, Windows 98SE, Fat32
D:\ Primary Slave, 60GB, Windows 2000, Fat32
Drive 2, 80GB, 1 partition:
E:\ Secundary Master, 80GB, Windows ME, Fat32
Now I installed Win98SE on the C drive, many many times over and over until I got it exactly as I want it (and clean). Made an image of the drive as well once all was in order. Next up should be Win 2000 as I read you should go in order oldest to new. So I now just install Win2000 on the D:\ drive and do all my drivers and stuff? After that I install WinME to the E:\ drive?
Additional question:
Should I use NTFS on the Win2000 partition or just leave it as Fat32 for more compatibility between the OS's (ability to read all drives from everywhere)?
