Ok ... So now I've made a 1gig partition and put WinME on that partition ... it's in the root of my primary HDD ... that's all working just fine, but now how do I get the dual boot set up? There is no choice to dual boot back into XP now ... do I create my own boot.ini file or what? I checked and it showed my XP on the G drive, lol, but it's still there ... Thanks!

Run the XP install from the cd and choose the repair install, it should then set XP as the primary boot OS and create a boot.ini for you so you can select ME/XP.
