Default Dual booting Windows 98 with Windows 98

Anyone know if it is possible?

I've been looking around and I found a peice of software that apparently works but I have just shafted the machine trying to use it

Our web developers need to be able to test the website on different versions of IE and you can only have 1 version of IE per machine, hence dual boot.

I have dual booted loads of other machines, XP, 2000 Server, Professional etc. but never 98 and 98.

Has anyone done this?

Darren

Have a look at this. Allows lots of virtual machines. Might cost a bit in the short term but could save you a lot of time.

Thanks guys,

I've used vmware in the past and thought it was really clever, however I was looking at spending no money from our budget on this . If I can't find a suitable program I wil lhave to dual boot with W98 and W2K. I know this works.

And I can't do it ilegally
