There are a few reasons why I don't want to 'get out of the dark ages' just yet on this computer: 1) I really don't have the time or inclination to transfer all the games on the two hard drives and install a new operating system; invariably, I will lose some saved games, and some of the games won't work, and then my kids won't be happy! 2) Some of the games my kids play, such as "Total War: Shogun" only work with 95 and 98! We already have computers running on XP - and it doesn't work on them; it didn't even install correctly on the ME drive - that's why I'd like to resurrect the drive that has 98 on it. 3) I don't want to pay money for an additional XP operating system, especially for an old computer (800 MHZ).
Can you explain more why both of my drives are "C"? They are both installed in my computer, one as master and one as slave, and one is called C and the other D. Is it something about the operating systems that the drive has to be labeled C in order for ME or 98 to act as the OS? Can I just change the jumper settings on the drive that has 98 so that it is the master? Then what - how do I set things up to give the person who boots up the computer the option of which OS to use? Or is that even possible? Thanks for your help!
