How can we do it so that loading the new os into the C
drive does not damage what is in the D drive?
Hi:
You simply install the new OS into the "C" drive. Never heard of and
OS installation doing anything to the other partitions unless you ask
the installation to install to the other partitions. You will be asked
where to install the new OS reinstallation. You might even try to do
a "Windows in place reinstallation" instead of a clean install. If it
completes OK then you would not loose anything that is on the "C"
partition. When you do a clean install you will be given the options
to create as many new partitions as you want if you need them.
A procedure we do all the time is, install the first OS to the "C"
partition, the second OS to any other partition, and create a partition
for data to keep data safe in case of an OS failure.
For a "windows in place reinstallation" also known as a "repair
reinstallation" just Google these phrases for Microsoft support
sites.
