The first suggestion using
multiple operating systems is the obvious one -- to try out some of the new
operating systems available today like Linux, Windows 2000, or the BeOS. Some
of these new operating systems offer some real advantages to us that we may
want to try. However, you do not want to destroy your current Windows
operating system just to try out one of the new ones. Using multiple
operating systems, you can keep your current operating system and still try
something new. Here’s how you do this.

Once you have removed your
applications and data files from your c: drive, you should have lots of empty
room in it to take advantage of. Using PartitionMagic, you can reduce the
size of your c: drive and set up another primary partition next to it. In this
empty primary partition you will install the new operating system you want to
try. There is a special paper on the PartitionMagic CD that leads you through
the steps to do this.

Switching between your
current Windows system and the new operating systems is as easy as rebooting
your system using PowerQuest’s BootMagic utility.
