Shouldn't be a problem as long as the new drive directly replaces the old one on the cable etc.
Eg. Clone C drive, remove (or move) C drive on the IDE cable and replace with newly cloned drive so that windows sees the new C drive in the same position as old one. If you don't change them over like that you may need to change your BIOS settings to boot from the correct drive
