Dual Boot Up Problems

I have two hard drives (primary master and slave) that have Windows 2000 installed, and can boot from either.

However, I tried to install a hard drive with a Windows 98se OS as the primary master and want to boot off of the primary slave (with windows 2000). I configured the bios to boot off of hdd1 (which I thought was the D: drive w/ windows 2000) but the computer keeps booting off the primary master automatically (C: drive w/ windows 98se).

What's going on? How can I force the computer to just look at the D: drive?

HDD1 as opposed to HDD0?

You may have to use a bootloader to accomplish that.
