Acronis os selector 8.0 User Manual

 

 

 

Here the Setup might need information about the hard disk where you have 
placed the system folders of the operating system. This is done to provide 
for cases when Windows NT/2000/XP hard disk cannot be accessed via BIOS 
functions, and is therefore invisible to Acronis OS Selector. 

 

 

If on the 1

st

stage you have chosen to convert the partition to NTFS, this conversion 

is done before the 2

nd

 stage and requires an additional reboot. 

During this stage the rest of the files are copied, hardware is detected, and 
additional system configuration information is collected. For Acronis OS 
Selector this stage is recognized as an already-installed operating system, 
and when it is over the system is fully installed. 

Windows 2000/XP installation program can upgrade Windows 95/98/ME and 
preserve its configuration. 

 

We recommend you not to use this option, since these are two completely different 

operating systems with different drivers, and applications that were installed in one 

of them may not necessarily work in the other. This installation mode also removes 
all the detected DOS and Windows 95/98/ME operating systems from the computer 
completely and without asking any questions. 

Let us elaborate on Windows 95/98/ME operating system upgrade to 
Windows 2000/XP.
