Hi,

I would like to convert and then extend a partion from FAT32 into NTFS. I
inserted the appropriated lines in the sysprep.inf but they don't work, any
idea????

Here is the sysprep.inf

Dont have my notes in front of me but I believe you need to specify an
"amount" by which you wish to extend the partition...?

IMHO you can't use the sysprep tool to convert FAT32 to NTFS.

REF.CHM (coming with the deployment tools cab file) says:

FileSystem is not a valid entry in Sysprep.inf.

There are also some tips to get the optimal performance of the NTFS
drive in the help file.
