A question about dual-booting Win2K
Alright, I'm reformatting my wife's HD, and am going to put Win2K (korean) on that drive. I am already running Win2K (english) on my HD. Will attempting to do this cause any problems?

I wouldn't think so, as I've dual-booted Win2K and XP before...

I run a server with Win2000 server and 2000 professional and its always ran fine when its not getting hacked like a chihuahua in a Peking restaurant.

6. Unfortunately...
because Korean is a 2 byte charcter system, inputting Korean text on an English OS is a real pain in the ass.

5. Why not just use the language settings?
Look in the Regional and Language options in Control Panel.

8. Well then...
You can easily dual boot Win2k, even on the same partition though that isn't recommended.
