CompTIA A Plus Study Guide: Installing Windows

Dual Boot Support (Cont...)
  • Do not install Windows 95 and 98 in a multiple boot configuration. Windows 98 is an upgrade version of Windows95 so it will try to use the same boot file.

  • When you are installing Windows 95 and Windows 2000, you should always install Windows 2000 lastly because the files necessary to start Windows 2000 could be overwritten. As a golden rule always install the high end operating system at the end. There is no such complication with Windows 98 or 2000; you can install in any order but it is a best practice to install the high end operating system in the last.

  • If you want to install Windows NT and Windows 2000 then you must install service pack 4 for Windows NT. Windows 2000 is NTFS 5 and Windows NT is NTFS 4 so it will not read 2000 partitions.

  • You cannot share the application programs in dual boot. The applications must be installed on both operating systems.
