Read the book, WIN98 and XP can be very compatible, that is, everyone can, and I am in the original WIN98 system, the XP family version of the XP family version is the original Win98 system in C drive, new XP family The version is very smooth, there is no incompatible problem, and it is a very good thing for WIN98 and XP.) After the installation is successful, there is a dual boot menu, which system can be selected to enter which system.
Unfortunately, when I started to display the dual boot menu, I pressed the ESC button, and the result is not seen to see the double boot menu and go directly to Win98.
I am busy again, but the information is limited, I only found "the recovery of C-drive XP, D drive WIN98 dual-system dual start menu" has no way, I have to change the boot.ini file.
Go to C: Find boot under the root directory. INI file opens
[boot loader]
TIMEOUT = 30
Default = C: / Windows
[Operating Systems]
C: / = "Microsoft Windows 98"
It can be seen that XP startup configuration is not, the change method described on the article found in [Operating Systems]
The following plus MULTI (0) DISK (0) RDisk (0) Partition (2) / windows = "Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition" / FastDete is restarted after saving, the dual boot menu, but select Enter Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition When system prompts "/ Winnt's hal.dll file corruption or loss" cannot enter the XP system to be an error in the HAL.DLL file, then enter the Win98 to copy someone's HAL.DLL to D: / WINDOW / Windows / System32 overwritten The original "damaged or lost" file will remain still. Because it is really unfamiliar with the setting syntax of Boot.ini, so I have only D drive to load XP!
After installing the system, the double boot menu is restored, you can use it normally, but your heart is still unconcerned, so open C: /Boot.ini again.

[boot loader]
TIMEOUT = 30
Default = MULTI (0) Disk (0) RDisk (0) Partition (2) / Windows
[Operating Systems]
Multi (0) Disk (0) rdisk (0) Partition (2) / windows = "Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition" / FastDetect
C: / = "Microsoft Windows 98"
Don't say it, I understand, the setting of Default is not right. When the dual boot menu is booted to boot XP, I can find the Hal.dll file in C, which is naturally unable to find, the error is normal.
