choosing dual boot W2KP & W2KS

[Guest]

Is it worth setting up a separate partition when dual booting between
Windows 2000 Professional and Windows 2000 Server?
Currently I just installed the 2nd OS in a separate folder (seemingly
without any issues) on the same partition.

Are there any problems with installing both on the same partition?

I have 2 drives and I want to keep the OS on the first drive.
Data and installed programs/files are on the 2nd drive.

Thanks, Tracey

Always install operating systems on separate partitions.
