I already have Windows 98 installed in my computer, I have 2 fixed disk on
it, one contains all my work and personal files, its capacity is 40MG, the
other is 13 MG, it will be for my son, I going to re place windows 98 in
both of them with Windows 2000 SP4.
The problem is that Windows 2000 recognize that there is 2 hard drive in
the computer, I don’t want it when my son use his hard drive, I don’t want
any sign that there is another hard drive in my sons windows 2000 version
at all…I tried to do that in the BIOS to make one active and one not
active, but windows 2000 recognize any hard drive in the system even if it
is inactive in the BIOS…

Please help

If your going to convert to 2K then convert the drives to NTFS and once
you install you can create
user accounts , one of the option is to deny your son as a user access to
the drive or folders on the drive.
