What happens if you install windows over the old one?

What happens if you install windows over the old one without formatting the partition?
I started the laptop, and there some errors got in, the Wi-Fi didn’t cut it, and then all sorties and that’s it. Now it starts as usual, but at the moment where the password should be entered, just a black screen and a working cursor. The files must be saved, I wonder what will happen if I put a new one on top of the old Windows on the same partition.

The profile files will be copied to the Windows.old directory, the rest (other drive directories) will remain in place
