Yes, you can fairly easily dual boot WinXP and Win98. And, if you didn't format between installs of WinXP that might explain why documents were still there. To set up dual boot do a search in WinXP Help on 'dual boot'. Then click on the full text search hits. Regards . . .

if you wanna multi boot, you have to install the older OS first. therefore you need to install 98 BEFORE XP. install 98 on drive c: and XP on drive D:. xp and 98 will have to be on separate partitions.
