Hi,

Most likely so.... It will require that these programs be registered, (in the Registry) otherwise your O.S., won't know that these programs actually exist.

While on the otherhand, if you have programs that do not require to be registered in the (Registry), you should have no problems.

186084 2003-10-28 20:25:00 yes and no. some programs you only need to make a shortcut to them and they will work. others a simply over the top reinstall and it will all work again without looseing data (exept for those that store large amounts of data in the registry). however those that intergrate with the OS it may not be possible to reinstall without first removing the leftovers. tweak'e (174)
