How do you setup a dual boot using Windows 98 and Windows XP?
If you have a smaller hard drive use 98 first, then change it to FDisk for the file changes to NTFS, then you use Windows XP, but if it's a bigger one like 75 GB on my Windows XP, then do XP first and then do 98 so it knows the hard drive!
Which utility is used to partition a new hard drive in windows98?
Fdisk. Windows 98 cd's are not bootable (for the most part) so in order to partition a new hard disk in preparation of a windows 98 install, you will need to make a boot floppy (or boot CD, or USB) which will enable you to partition and format the disk for windows install. Follow the link below for some disk images, utilities, and workarounds for the windows 98 bootdisk dilemma.
How do you get a new hard drive to work?
A new hard drive generally comes without a valid partition table nor file system. Assuming you have the new hard drive cabled and configured correctly (using the jumper diagrams on the label), you then have to prepare it for a file system.The first thing you'd need to do is partition the new hard drive. Since Windows XP, Windows comes with both FDisk and a disk manager. You can use those. Once you install the partition table, you may need to format the partition(s) you created. If you use FDisk, you will certainly need to format as a separate step. FDisk is really only suitable for new drives or drives you want to completely erase, since it cannot change partition sizes once they are created without losing data.Or if you prefer, you can use a third-party partition manager. The modern partition managers can automatically do some of the necessary steps for you. So all you have to do is tell it you want a certain size partition or to use the entire space and it will make sure you have a valid partition table, that you have a FAT32 or NTFS file system, and have the correct type of partitions.One thing to keep in mind is that if you ever want to boot off of the new drive, the partition table type has to be set to Active. If the active flag is missing, any operating system that is installed on that drive will not boot. So if you can access the drive but not boot from it, then you likely forgot to configure the drive as Active. That is easy to fix and even FDisk can do that without any loss of data. Nearly every partition tool available has this option.
What do you do if the message 'windows 98 has detected drive c does not contain a valid fat or fat 32 partition' appears when booting from a floppy?
This usually occurs after formatting or putting a new hard drive into a system and needs to be fidisked. To do this get to a dos prompt usuing a bootable floppy, type in fdisk and partition the hard drive using the on screen options (create new partition)(fat32 for windows 95/98/me ntfs for nt/xp/2000)
