Cable Forum - View Single Post - Norton Internet Security,on a dual boot system?

cyclone · 20-06-2005, 16:28

I've just installed Win2000 and WinXP as a dual boot.XP was the original OS and was set up to include Norton Int Sec.
The dual boot works well and all software installs and runs in seperate installations for both OS. However Norton refuses to install as,I presume, it detects the default files installed by the XP installation at c:/program files/symantec and c:/windows/symantec ,these addresses appear to be unalterable unlike the program files,on installation.
Is there any way round this,can the file addresses be altered,or is Norton unsuitable for dual boot systems?
