The system will run. However, the device tree in the registry will be
invalid. Or so claimed MS PSS. Remember, MS-Windows is an extremely
delicate system. You know how we complain that MS-Windows crashes all the
time? A large part of that is due to the fact that it handles things like
this so poorly. Sure, everything *looks* okay, but the Jenga tower has just
become a lot more unstable.
Or maybe they fixed this in Windows ME. I doubt it, though. :-)
