FAT / NTFS

A

Allan Melville

Have installed XP Pro on C Drive but it is as FAT - as
per manual you should be able to convert without
uninstalling and doing partition using command:

Convert C: /FS:NTFS

Above command does not work - can anyone assist - I need
NTFS for the course I am studying

Regards

Greetings --

You can safely convert the partition to NTFS whenever desired,
without having to format the partition and reinstall everything. As
always when performing any serious changes, back up any important data
before proceeding, just in case. A little advance preparation is also
strongly recommended, so you can avoid any performance hits caused by
the default cluster size:
