The only problem is that your old applications installed under your old windows system will not be found in your new clean system. Why is this? That’s right, the Clean system’s Registry is empty and does not have the pointers to the applications. Frankly, this is probably a good situation for us as it forces us to cleanly install our applications on this new clean operating system. Use PartitionMagic to setup an empty Logical partition on your second hard drive. Now, don’t install all of your applications in the new partition, but only those applications that you use daily or at least several times each week. It’s the old 80/20 rule here. 80% of your time you will run only 20% of your application programs. So, install just these very important 20% of your applications under the new system. This keeps the clutter down in this clean system.
	Once you’ve done this, you will use your clean system most of the time. This system will not freeze up on you or crash on you. It will run smoothly and very efficiently. When you do have to run a seldom used program, you simply reboot and switch back to your old system for a short time, then back to your clean system for most of your work.
