Win95 and WinNT can not exist on the same partition. If you do not have
partitions that you can allocate for this purpose, you will need to
repartition and reformat a drive. In addition, everything that depends
on (a) their own DLLs located in the standard system paths or (b) their
own registry keys will need to be re-installed for the new OS. In a
majority of occasions you can store the application in the same
directory IF the two OSs share a file system -- ie, FAT (can WinNT mount
FAT32? Win59 will definitely not see NTFS). If you install Win95 first
then NT, NT should add Win95 to it's boot-up menu automagically. If the
other order, you can add Win95 to the menu manually.
