Don't think it will be possible. Registry settings will make it
that only 1 copy will work.

So if you realy want to try it out, installing it on a different
computer might be easiest but if you don't have another
computer, you can also partition your HD and make it
dual boot. Install windows on the newly created partion,
and then install TS2K again.

When you turn on your computer, at that moment you will
be asked wich partition you want to boot. You can then
choose your old or new installation (this is the complete
windows installation)

There is another solution called VMware... this will run a
virtual machine in your current windows.... i guess however
that is all just a little to much. http://www.vmware.com/

Last solution.... back up your registry, install TS to its
new location, then do the stuf you want to do, after that
restore your registry. No garanty that will work... but
it just might...

unfortunatly, no easy solution.
