Hope this isn't considered too OT:
I have Win XP Pro, which I intend to change (using Partition Magic)
from FAT 32 to NTFS. After that, I intend to use Drive Image 2002 to
create an image of the C: partition.
Assume my system one day becomes utterly unbootable (due to
OS/software, not hardware, issues) and I want to restore my image.
Can I simply restore the C: drive data from the image I created (using
Drive Image floppy disks), or do I first need to re-install the OS,
convert from FAT32 to NTFS and then restore from the image?
(I ask b/c I believe, perhaps incorrectly, that with a clean install
of windows, the original file system has to be FAT32, after which you
can covert to NTFS -- or am I mistaken here?)
Thanks.
