Thanks, dosfreak. I think it had to do with accessing the FAT32 partition with a standard DOS disk. My daughter still has some of those old games on the PC, and may don't run under Windows XP - have to boot from the DOS disk. But #4 is probably right too. I'm a little nuts. Thanks again.

I'm brain dead. When I upgraded to XP a few years ago, I kept my C: drive at FAT32, but converted my D: to NTFS. I converted D: so I could exceed the 4G file limit for video captures. I know I kept C: wit FAT32 for a very specific reason, which for the life of me I can't remember now. I think it had something do do with not being able to access NTFS after booting with a DOS disk or something like that. Can anyone help me understand what possible reason I would have had to keep C: at FAT32 with XP? Any help for my memory lapse would be greatly appreciated. Dave
