separate OS's that reside on separate drives (C: FreeBSD, D: Win98)..

Yes, it can. On my system Windows is on C, FreeBSD on D, but other than
that, the same rules should apply.

You need a boot manager on BOTH drives. Then, when you want to load FreeBSD
from C, just press F2, or whatever key is presented as FreeBSD. When you
want to load Windows, press F5 to load from drive D first. It will then
load the boot manager from drive D: At that point press F1 to load Windows
(the numbers may vary, but the principle remains).
