was, if you connect the old XP drive into the NT system computer then boot up from the NT Installer disk as if to begin the installation, what happens?

I am guessing that the installer will offer you the option of deleting the existing partition that XP is on, then continuing with the install.

In fact in the link below are the steps to install NT and the 'delete partition' comes later;
