hi, i currently have dual boot win98se on C: and win2k pro on D:
both are FAT32 for now and both are actually on same physical hardrive, C: & D: are created using partitions.
i ahve a question, is it safe to convert D: where win2k is installed, into NTFS? wanted to do this bcoz i want to have security features to control programs accessibility..
it doesn't matter if wen i bootup using win98, it cannot see the D: drive. wen i boot up win98 i'll juz be using proggrams on C:
however, wen i boot up win2k i must be able to still use programs installed on C:.. so will the conversion from FAT32 to NTFS affect anything? (besdies win98 not able to see NTFS partition, which is ok with me).
thanks

wanderer is rite, it is not a problem, i have exactly that with win 98 and XP both on the same hdd 98 is fat 32 and XP is NTFS.its exactly like you said 98 cant see XP, but XP can see the 98 partition.
enjoy.
