That's true when installing Win95A over the top of a WinNT 4.0
installation.  However, believe it or not, Win95B (OSR2) does not
disturb the WinNT 4.0 boot files and installs nicely.
Of course you must install it without the FAT-32 option.

Thank you for the information.  I haven't read all of it in detail; but, on
first pass, it appears to be exactly what I needed.  The ADMINCFG utility
provides more features and ease of administration than I had hoped for.
Also, since this was provided for WFWG, there certainly must be an equivalent
for Win95 too.

assistant: This is probably wishing for outlandishly too much Charles, but does SR2
migrate NT 4.0's desktop and program settings?
Just to note to the originator of this thread, it's no problem dual booting
any version of NT with any version of Windows 95 or DOS on the same FAT
formatted hard drive if the hard drive is first setup with Windows 95 or DOS
and you install Windows NT -last-. It's when you try to install Windows 95a
or DOS over Windows NT that you encounter problems. Understandibly, I don't
think MS ever considered DOS or Windows 95a as an "upgrade" to Windows NT,
hence never saw any reason to put the code in to allow one to install DOS or
Win95a as a dual boot over NT. Maybe by allowing SR2 to be installed over NT,
their marketing feels that more people will be inclined to give NT a try and
evolve to it as thier main operating system.
If you install DOS, and then Upgrade to Windows 95, preserving the original
DOS allowing W95 to let you choose it with F8, you can run DOS X.XX, Windows
95 and Windows NT from the same FAT formatted hard drive if you think you
really -need- to. The windows NT boot manager will allow you to choose NT or
the Windows/DOS system (depending on the version), when you choose to load
Windows 95, if you want to run DOS X.XX, you then wack F8 and pick DOS from
W95's boot menu. Not as serindiptous as it sounds and it works fine.

assistant: CHRIS HOLTEN wrote to CHARLES SCAGLIONE about Install NT 4
No, it doesn't migrate anything.  (that's not what I meant)  What I was
pointing out was that OSR2 when installed to a machine that already had
WinNT 4.0 on it, would not disturb NT's boot files or goober the boot
sector unlike Win95A which will disturb everything.  (requiring the use
of the repair disk to get NT 4.0 back to boot status)
I have installed OSR2 twice over my current WinNT 4.0 installation
without problems.  Of course to a different partition/directory and also
without invoking FAT-32.

assistant: Gee. I have Win95, NT 4.0 server AND Netware 4.11 running on my server
here at home with no problems at all. I also have a client workstation
running Win95 and NT 4 workstation as well with no trouble. It all
depends on the installation order and different drives or partitions for
some of it. The NT manuals define how to install NT along with Win95 and
create a multiple boot screen to allow selection of the desired
operating system.
I guess the answer to the second question depends on a better defined
question. In NT, the following is true. Some applications are NT only
(i.e. Internet Explorer for NT ) while others are 95 and NT. Others will
not install on NT but run under NT (i.e. Procomm for 95).

assistant: We use a product called PC-Duo.  This is a really great product that saves me
a
lot of miles every day.  I can connect to another workstation (or Server) on
the other side of the partition or the other side of the world.  The other
system can be NT, Win95, Win 3.1 or dos.
I can connect in the background and make changes to files (or just look at
them) or connect and have their desktop on mine.
I can use it in "Shared" mode - We can both use the mouse or keyboard at the
same time.
I can use it in "Control" mode - Only I can drive this way.
I can use it in "Watch" mode  - I can just watch what they are doing.
I can also run it in "Show" mode - That is me sending my screen to 1 or
multiple users at the same time.  I could teach a class this way if I wanted
to
I suppose.
The client machines have to have it installed on their machines before you
an
connect to them.  We use it with TCP/IP as the transport protocol.  Others

I am not at my normal workstation this week as I am in a training class all

I understand there are 2 ways to install NT ... on HD as is .. or letting NT
format the drive ... I would like to know the advantages and disadvantages of
both methods ???
The purpose of Intalling NT is to learn how it works ... I imagine I should
have a 3Com Ethernet card in the pc for full features intallation ... or do I
realy need it ???
Slighly off topic .. I have a 3Com EISA  wont fit in my pc ... I need ISA so
it anybody needs it ... just let me know.

this helps... If the HDD you are installing NT to is 16bit FAT, then the
obvious advantage is the Win NT comes w/ 32bit fat, so formatting it will
make disk access faster, should anyway.. Dis? None, far as i can see (other
than leaving it 16bit)  .. But a 200mb hdd?? The windoze operating systems
are fairly sizeable, i'd recommend a bigger one if you plan on doing anything
