So I install Win98 on a 45gb hd? [windows setup] [hd]

Q: I keep hearing that will not let do a clean installation on a disk larger than 32GB. Is this true?

Re:Can't see why it shouldn't.

The 32 GB limitation is I think something that someone confused with the BIOS (part. AMI BIOS, which would only recognize a certain size of HDD with certain versions of that BIOS).

I haven't got an unpartitioned 45+ GB HDD floating about, so can't test it for you :( . Either way, I can't see problems to be honest.

Should work nicely, AFAIK.
