Yes. I then shrunk XP and hid it, created another primary and
installed 2K, then unhide XP.

Yes. I am using BM from DFSEE. Acronis OS selector is overkill. It
hides the files of the Win that is not booted in it's own directories.
That is only necessary if both are on the same partition. SC 9
lists eCS and BM but refuses to boot either. I am going to try SC
2000. On the BM menu either XP or 2K is hidden; the one that was not
run last. I unhide them and the next thing I know one is hidden
again. Not right away, later. I do not know what is hiding it. It
does work with them seeing each other. Which ever one is booted is C:
and the other one is assigned something else. Neither are ever hidden
from eCS.
