Every new Oracle install prepends its oracle_home\bin directory and nowadays it java_home\bin to the path so that would be a different order than usual.
I always remove them and have an oraenv.cmd to "augment" the path and set oracle_home and sid to the correct values when I need them, much like the oraenv on unix.

Other than that, I am no aware of any problems, although I have only ever installed them in the order Oracle8 - Oracle9.
