I would just install a3d on one partition and the EAX on the other partition to avoid having to manipulate files everytime I wanted to use somthing. I've done this Successfully using BootMGR as a boot manager and R-LOEW patches so 98se doesn't complain about multiple primary partitions on the same Disk. Of course one could always use 2 physical disks and not use any patches, and juse use any bootmanager. Since you're having to reboot anyways to select a differnt configuration this way is just more hassle free.
True though I'd have to remember which install has which games and what not. I could probably make a batch file to copy the right A3D file which means just a quick double click on the desktop.
Next thing on my list, experiment with a Glide wrapper on my FX5500 so I don't have to pick between installing my Voodoo3 or FX5500 (or other NVIDIA card)
