Convert FAT32 to NTFS hangs

I started converting my 40GB hard drive from FAT32 to NTFS
over 2.5 days ago and the process seems to have stopped at
the "Converting file system" message.

There was plenty of extra space for the conversion. I am
running Windows 2000 Pro on a Dell Optiplex.

Any recommendations on what to do next? I don't want to
restart except as a last resort - there are a few
important files on the PC that were not backed up.

Thanks.
