    Can someone give me detailed procedures on how to either upgrade from windows 98 to windows 2003 server , or how to do a dual boot windows 98/2003 system?

    Also, is it possible to just wipe out windows 98 and replace it with windows 2003?

    How about a dual boot windows 2003/windows 2000 advanced server set up?

    Thank you,

    John

    You cannot upgrade from a desktop OS (Win9x/ME/2000 Pro/XP Home/XP Pro) to a Server OS (2000 or 2003 Server)

    You can dual boot, certainly.

    Unless your machine is under-powered (<400Mhz, <256MB RAM) you will likely find that 2000 and 2003 are much better than Win9x

    Yes. Boot from the CD and format during setup.
