This seems most likely, it is very easy to get a hybrid mess.
I remember people had to go to extreme efforts to get Word 6 & Word 2 
to coexist happily. Word 6 & Office95 co-exist very happily so far.

Incidentally Word 6.0a is reasonably stable, although 6.0c (only available
from Microsoft - its a complete new disk set) is the most stable/latest.
