Windows XP Dual Boot with WinMe

I have two physical hard drives with the C: drive loaded with XP and the D: drive
loaded with Windows ME. I loaded them separately, but I wish to be able to create
a dual boot involving both drives. Is there anyway to do this without having to re-install
either operating system? I would appreciate whatever help you can provide.
Thanks.

No...well not without a really big headache anyway. Click on Help and Support from
the start button and type in "dual boot". When the results come up, Click on "Full-text
search matches" and the info is all in result 2.

Thanks. Actually, in the interim, when I boot my system I can go into the bios and
change the boot order and that will suffice for now. I just didn't feel like having
to re-install all over again. At least now now.

It's actually good that you have your ntfs seperate from your fat..and on the first
drive at that...all you need to do is add the fat info to your boot.ini on your first
(ntfs) partition....
