RE: Newbie: Installing Dual XP on NTFS and Win 98 on FAT32 |
|

you could use a program like partition magic (if you don't want to pay you
could use a free one program like gnu parted) to copy and resize the
partitoins onto the 200gb hard disk, assuming both are connected to the
comptuer, then remove the old one. I'm not sure if you would have to copy or
rewrite the mbr program, depends what your using to dual boot. I think
partition magic can convert a fat32 drive to ntfs, if it can't i'm pretty
sure there's also a program that comes with windows xp for this purpose.
(can't check anything as my computer isn't working properly, which is why i'm
here)

partition has Chinese Win98 and the other has XP FAT32. The 20G drive
sounds like it's dying.
I wish to run both O/S's as I am now, mainly for Video Transfer and I am
using a P4 Celeron 1.8G, but I am unsure if this is possible. I want the XP
partition to use NTFS.
Can anyone assist?
Thanks
