In my experience, when Windows is on anything other than the first 
partition of the primary master HD, the results are unpredictable and 
event-sequence dependent.  98 will walk the bios chain and the first 
dos-readable partition becomes C:.  NT/W2K/XP have completely different 
algorithms for assigning driver letters during setup and post setup.

The number of permutations for failure modes for NT is stochastic.
In other words: don't f*cking bother.
