I believe that XP has the nt loader. Check out this mini-howto and see if it's useful.

Question What lilo version?

Meech:

I'm having the same problem not only with Red Hat, but with several other distros. The only one that seems to work fine is Mandrake.

What Lilo version did you install?

I got one of the latest versions of Lilo and installed that... It seemed to look different being as it had a red box on bootup (haven't came across one like that before). Now I run FreeBSD on that computer and am not having a problem since the drive that was for Windows 98 is now just a backup for the BSD drive.
