Why would you want it to?  You just want to be sure it keeps its nose
out.  If the partitions are created with any competent fdisk (even msdos
fdisk will do, so I guess DiskDrake should be OK) before you install
windows into one of them, you should be right.  AFAIK it is only if you
change the size of a windows partition after windows is installed that
it will feel free to write all over what it used to own.

I have done it twice (that is all the dos/windows there were in my
original partition scheme:  128m for windows, 256m for email overflow
for windows, the rest for linux) and I reckon I didn't lose anything I
cared about.  :-)
