Here's the deal. I've been debating Win98SE or WinXP. The solution that struck me is obvious--use both.
I have some older cards (Video/TV/DVD) and and also a good USR hardware ISA modem that aren't supported by Win XP--or any OS past 98SE (ME for ISA) for that matter. Trust me--I've looked into it.
Now what if I install WinXP and also Win98SE on the same computer ? ?
Is thare any way of taking an ATI Video All-In-Wonder PCI Rage 128 and an ISA modem away from XP's "eyes" ?
And giving XP an external serial modem with voice-support for telephony, while 98SE enjoys the USR ISA Hard-modem. And running the older AIW-TV capture PCI gfx card under 98SE which won't work under XP.
(I also have a DVD "inlay" card which I'm hoping I can some milage out of.)
In other words, can I have in effect two computers in one box ?
And does it matter if the two OS's are on one HDD or two ?
Basically, it's the ATI Rage 128 AIW TV PCI Gfx card and the USR ISA modem I don't want XP to holler about.
