I had NT 4.0 installed on logical drive C of a departmental server. It was buggy, so I did a new install to logical drive D. I left the NT files on drive C. The system now boots from drive D and seems to be working fine.
I had a consultant in and he recommended that I reinstall the operating system after wiping out the entire hard drive. He indicated that having two copies of NT was potentially dangerous and that NT was sure to confuse DLLs, etc. I am faced with a two day reinstall and reload.
I would appreciate any advice, opinions, etc. Is having an earlier version of NT on my C drive dangerous? The consultant did not recommend merely removing the duplicated files from the C drive.
