After I installed Wengier's DOS 7.10 full installation edition, my Windows multi-boot menu (my machine has three systems: WinME, 2000, and XP) had a problem:
The WinME boot entry disappeared and became MS-DOS 7.10, so I can't enter WinME. Typing "WIN" under DOS doesn't work either, and it says: the version only runs MS-DOS 8.00 .
How should I modify it so that WinME can boot?

The above was wrong, the message is: the version of windows runs only on MS-DOS 8.00 .

This sentence means that WinME needs to run under MS-DOS 8.0. To run WinME, please install MS-DOS 8.0, not MS-DOS 7.10. During installation, MS-DOS 7.10 did prompt that WinME was already present in the system and asked whether to continue, but you chose "Yes", so this happened.

Then how can I make both dos7.10 and winme boot normally? How should I modify the boot configuration?

Then install another MS-DOS 8.00 and use a boot manager like GRUB or SPFDISK to make MS-DOS 7.10 and MS-DOS 8.00 dual-boot.
