Change the boot order to what? Maybe I should explain more. This system was originally running off the windows 98SE hard drive, so there are no driver conflicts. Neither drive has other partitions. I removed that hard drive and put in a newer, larger SATA drive. I bought windows XP with SP2 and put it on the new hard drive and started over clean - but with all the same old hardware and drivers. Now I would like to put in the old IDE hard drive with windows 98SE on it and have the option to boot to windows 98SE, so that I can play old games on that drive, and use my older programs on it. Surely there is a way to do this?
