For five years I've used Partition Magic's Boot Manager on my existing

Have just built a new PC and intended to put dual boot Win2000 and XP
on it. I cannot use the above-mentioned software as it's too old.

No XP at the moment, but installed two copies of 2000 and then tried
various Boot Managers. So far I haven't found one which works!

How large is this HD? Win2k doesn't enable LBA48 by default (even with SP4, IIRC), so using a >137GB drive would be pretty unwise.
