This also means that this PC has dual boot, so when it starts you choose which version of Windows you will start. Reason for having both 64 and 32 bit is that my wife is running some older games that don't work on 64bit, and some newer that don't run on 32bit .... sick ... puuuh <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite11" alt=":rolleyes:" title="Roll Eyes    :rolleyes:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":rolleyes:" />Well, the PC is in need of a serious refresh, so the best option is to just reinstall it all.The easiest way as I can see it, is just to do a regular "reinstall" from inside windows, first the 32bit, then the 64bit, ending up with a dual boot as before the reinstallation.  I think there is an option when reinstalling the OS, where I say that ONLY the OS partition should be overwritten, leaving the application disk unharmed, my theory is then that the other Win version should be left unharmed.My Q is- Will this work, meaning will the reinstall be done on the same OS disk partition as currently?- OR will the installation overwrite whatever is on ALL disk in the PC, meaning my dual boot will be gone4ever?regards // Mats</blockquote>
