Yes, partition magic will work. My method doesn't repartition any drives. It simply puts WinXP on a drive and Win98 on a different physical drive.

XP will be able to see the Win98 drive, but if XP is on NTFS, win98 will not be able to read or write that.

So any data you want to use on both operating systems will need to be on a Fat32 Filesystem.

PS, I realize I didn't really answer the first question. I guess I wouldn't touch an already working O/S, so that's why I gave a very different answer.
