I am currently using win XP on 80 GB HDD. I want to have a dual O/S 2000 prof
or NT.

I need a solution for partition & installtion steps to install the 2000
prof or NT, on the same HDD. (ie, i want to partition the HDD into 40 GB each
for XP & NT).

I do not want to remove the XP & do every thing from scrach.

Appericate you time.

Thanks
Rakesh

Just go ahead and install Windows 2000. Then all you need to do is a
"Repair" of your XP installation.
