Fat32 to NTFS conversion

[Spotman]

Can anyone tell me if there is any problems running older programs if you
convert your hard drive from Fat32 to the new Ntfs in Xp? You have to
convert if you want to make files private in Xp. I am leery to try it.
Thanks John Y

That's one of the reasons GOD invented backups.
Backup your current partition and then if the ntfs conversion doesn't suit
you, reload using the backup.
