Well, actually Windows ME is based off the 9x series. Windows 2000 and XP are both using NT core.

Personally, I suggest you either buy an old machine and set up Windows 95 or 98 on it or simply buy an additional hard drive. By disconnecting all the other hard drives and installing W98SE on the new one, you can change your Win2K machine into a perfect Win98 one. As a matter of fact, that is exactly what I have done with my WinXP computer.

Would I be able to use an External Hard drive for this? my current HD on my pc is 28.5GB and I was looking at some External ones and they are 100GB, which would allow me to not only have W98SE on it and then not only Simtower but some of the other games that I like, that worked better on older windows. Also beside W98SE what other stuff would I need to put on there, or would it just use the soundcard and stuff that is allready on my pc? And do you recomend unistalling the stuff that comes with W98SE that I dont need to play the games I want (like any kind of word processing/office stuff) or should I just leave that stuff on? Also is it hard to boot the PC off of an External hard drive instead of the built in one? I would like to keep W2000 installed on my PC because I use it for all kinds of stuff and Im just gunna wait to Vista comes out to get a new PC.

Im sorry if I kinda rambled on but Im not that much of a computer wiz...LOL I know my way around and stuff but not so much about useing a diffrent HD with a diffrent version of windows...
