To reinstall Windows, you can use a dedicated installation partition, typically known as the "Recovery Partition." This partition contains files necessary for restoring or reinstalling the operating system without needing external media. Alternatively, you can create a bootable USB drive or DVD with the Windows installation media, which allows for a fresh installation on the primary system partition. Both methods enable you to reinstall Windows while retaining or formatting other partitions as needed.

What is the benefit of partitioning your drive?

Partitioning allows you to create a logical separation between different operating systems and data. For example, you could have a windows operating system on one partition, a Linux operating system on another partition, and your personal data (My Documents in windows and /home in Linux) on a third. This allows you to wipe one of your partitions clean and reformat without having to backup the data on the others (say for example, your windows install gets a virus).

If you have Windows 2000 in primary HD and Windows XP on slave how can you use both OS without losing files?

If you are talking about programs, you can't. If you create a dual boot system, the programs will have to be installed on each operating system (actually the program does not reinstall but it does register the files for each of the operating systems). Data files don't care where you put them. You may have to search for a known file name to find them.
