kgeissler 0 Posted June 20, 2000 Does anyone know of a way to convert a FAT partition to a FAT32 partition in Windows 2000? Or is there a 3rd party program that can do this? Share this post Link to post
FrogMaster 0 Posted June 20, 2000 Partition Magic will do the job without a glitch if you have dual boot. I keep W2K/Win98 dual boot because it is nice to be able to do stuff on the W2K partition from within Win98 without being bothered by file protection etc. For example, I can defrag W2K fastly and cleanly with Norton from Win98. BTW, PM is a very powerful program and a must have. Share this post Link to post
SpongeMaster 0 Posted June 20, 2000 If you dual boot, 98 has a conversion program built in. Share this post Link to post
FrogMaster 0 Posted June 20, 2000 Yep. But as far as I remember, you cannot go back to fat 16 if you wish to ??? Share this post Link to post
Iasius 0 Posted June 20, 2000 With Partition Magic you can go back, alhtough I do not see why you would want to. I think you can even switch between NTFS and FATXX ------------------ My system specs: PIII 600E @ 800 , 160mb PC100 3-3-3, SBLive, 15 GB IBM, Gigabyte BX2000@133, WinTV primio, Pioneer DVD 10x, Iiyama VM 451 (1280x1024@100Hz .
