Surely you can on Win XP (using two different names of C:\Windows folder).
But I got in past some problems with C:/Document and settings and C:/Program Files because the two version was trying to write in the same place!
Strange things can happens if you install the same program (like Winzip) in both version on Win and disinstall it only one time ... the second version of windows will not find the program on C:\Program Files/Winzip

I recently got a VPC up and running with Solaris 10. The default GUI is AWFULL, think of a bad copy of Windows 2 with the worst colour scheme from Windows 3 by default. It also seems very confused in terms of organisation of where stuff is linked and clearly most of the Gigbytes of software it spent many hours installing is not immediately accessible.
Are there any CPians out there who love Solaris and can't wait to tell me what it's good for and where I should go for advice on configuring it? Or is it a dead duck, not worth wasting my time with?

I was planning to setup a VPC with Solaris10 this weekend as well.
I do have to experience with several non-MS OSes (OpenVMS, SCO Unix, Debian GNU/Linux, SuSe Linux), but I never got around to use Solaris.
However, you should start reading up on Unix if you have no previous experience. There are some standard ways to do things, and they usually differ wastly from what you would do under Windows.
As soon as I got my vbox up and running I'll post some experience reports here.
Cheers,
Sebastian

Thanks, my *n?x experience is certainly thin and that's one of the things I'm hoping to fix. I have managed to get a Virtual Ubuntu 6.10 system working nicely and almost talking to the WinXP host. A couple of Samba tutorials and I reckon I'll crack it. Solaris is an odd one though. If it's esentially a Unix variant then I suppose that's the way to go with understanding it. Hopefully I'll be able to transfer some learning over from Ubuntu
I wish you luck with the Solaris setup, I had to follow some pretty freaky instructions off the web to get it to boot from the DVD image but after that the next 5 hours of the install went very smoothly, a bit like treacle

Unsuccessful, as of now. Will try again next weekend. :/

I found the instructions here[^] did the trick. Totally arcane or what?

hi
in my computer a error message ouuured Boot failure-system halted when i try to open the computer.and in bios setup not visible boot priroty option such as cd,floopy,harddrive etc.what is the problem.please send me the proper solution.

If there is no boot-priority option in the BIOS (you should look again, though) there might be a seperate boot selection menu (I've seen F2 and F12 used for that purpose).
As to your error:
There are several possible explanations and solutions:
Faulty connection:
The plugs may be become undone. Try and replug all cables leading to the harddisk on all ends.
The cable may be damages. Try using another molex connector for power and replace the IDE cables.
"Faulty" harddisk:
If the disk makes a *clack* sound in short intervals or does not spin up during powerup, and there actually is power on the molex plug, replacing the HDD is the way to go.
If the disk does spin up "normally":
Try booting from a Live-CD (Knoppix, Kanotix, etc.) and probe the HDD (maybe use smartctl to read the SMART data). If the HDD is accessible here, chances are that the MBR or partition table are broken (Paragon BootManager tends to do this). Use the Live-CD's HDD tools to fix partition table damage. Use the Windows Recovery Console to fix the MBR.
Faulty mobo:
If the HDD does not spin up, or spins up, but is not recognized by any OS, there probably is a hardware error on the mainboard. Replace the mainboard or try using a different IDE channel (Reinstallation of the OS may become necessary).

I dunno - This is a Microsoft centric site. You might have better luck on a Lunux (SUSE) site.

According to Novell[^], SLED requires 256 MB of RAM so you might want to check your hardware again.
Doesn't the Enterprise version include tech support? Maybe you could try calling Novell . . .

Well, given your low system specs, I'd built something myself, starting off with DSL, LFS or SW (DSL = Damn Small Linux, SW = Slackware (both are distributions), LFS = Linux from Scratch (more a flavour than a distribution).
(Not really "maintained", though)
You may also be successful with Ubuntu or SuSe.

Sebastian

If the function succeeds, the return value is an open handle to the specified file.
If the specified file exists before the function call and dwCreationDisposition is
CREATE_ALWAYS or OPEN_ALWAYS, a call to GetLastError returns ERROR_ALREADY_EXISTS
(even though the function has succeeded). If the file does not exist before the call,
GetLastError returns zero.

Assuming you mean the \\.\PhysicalDriveX or \\.\X: syntax, you can't do that in Win 9x.
