I tried to convert my E drive that is a slave from fat32
to ntfs. I get a error message that says " unable to
convert RAW drives"
Can you open the drive in the ordinary way in My Computer? If so, it
suggests that there is corruption in the Convert tool.
If OTOH, it does not show in My Computer, and you are describing it as
'E' for other reasons, Go to Control Panel - Admin Tools - Computer
Management, select Disk Management and look lower right for the graphic
of the drive. See how the partition is described. If it is 'Healthy -
Unknown' a probable cause is that it has been marked as a Hidden one.
That can be adjusted with BootIT NG - see my page on adjusting the
alignment of FAT 32 partitions before converting, and using that tool,
select the partition, Properties and if here is an UnHide button, use
it.
If Disk manager shows anything else, let us know. It is possible that
using BootIT NG again would allow the Properties to change the partition
type to FAT 32, but *only* do this if sure of the present state.
