Welcome Carol, Of course there must be a separated partition for each operating system or two or more harddisks... but my problem is in booting I suppose. On HD #2 = d:\ there is a DOS 5.1 and on C:\ there is Win95 with DOS build into it. Booting can be done to C:\ only and than the DOS in Win95 is booted. This DOS-version causes some bugs in Arachne so I would rather like to boot from D:\. But how?
Futhermore newer Win versions like XP do not support DOS so double booting with DOS GUI is not possible because there is no DOS in WinXP. So... how would anyone with a factory installed WinXP or something like that run Arachne? Anyone...?
