    I have windows 98 and XP on the same drive in a dual boot setup. This is the 2nd time my win 98 has gone bad so that i can't boot into it. I don't know what keeps causing it? My XP works fine.

    When you boot the PC, you get a screen that lets you choose
    which Operating System you want to load.
    Is that correct ?
    If so, does a product name for the loader appear on this screen ?
    If so, what is the displayed name and version ?
    regards

    When i get to the screen where i have to choose which system i want to boot in, there isn't anything else there that refers to name and version of anything. I just have to select either win 98 or XP.
