Nero setup on dual boot hard drive (W2000+W98SE)

Hi!

I've got a Pioneer A03 DVD burner so I've finally decided to install Windows 2000 in the same hard drive I've Windows 98 SE installed (with dual boot capabilities) so I can use NTFS and thus creating files bigger than 4Gb (images of DVDs).

Problem comes when, having a working copy of Nero installed in the Windows98 environment, I need to REINSTALL Nero on the Windows 2000 environment.

It detects somehow the presence of Nero in the hard drive, overwritting it and making it work under Windows 2000, but it now refuses to work under WIndows 98.

I do need to have Nero working on BOTH OSs.

How can I accomplish that?

Nero installer does not provide path change feature...

Ideas?

Any1 else with the same problem?

Thanks!!!

I had a problem for a while trying to make an image with Nero and it would crap out on me at 3,999mb every time, (I didn't even think of the NTFS problem!) so I installed Win2000 on an entirely different HardDrive (40gig) and kept WinME on another (40gig as well), and installed Nero on both... It doesn't seem to check everytime I start either OS, and now with Win2000 making the images, I seem to have no problem backing up an entire 4.7gig DVD. Hope this helped, and thanks for helping me with what I was overlooking.

this one is easy i think

partition! having nero on the same drive makes it accessible to both os's, since both look to c: . if you install one to c:, and one to d: or e: or whatever drive you want, it should work out ok.

i suggest partition magic, but it imght be kind of expensive for a casual user. it is the de facto standard, though. (i just like saying de facto)
