I have not had any problems doing this since Windows XP.  I do this all the
time.  When Windows discovers that there is an existing directory on the
partition, it creates another one.  For instance, under Documents and Settings I
might have \Administrator and \Administrator.NT

The x64 version of Windows installs 64-bit executables into \Program Files and
creates a \Program Files (x86) for 32-bit programs.

Works just fine.
