if I goto command prompt and do the C: /FS:NTFS to make my HD NTFS will I lose all of my stuff on here or what???

[beedubaya]

Type convert c: /fs:ntfs. You will lose none of your data, just run a defrag when you get done.

u can also right click my computer, manage, and do it that way as well.

No problem at all after change the file system?

[killians45]

no, there shouldn't be. converting BACK to fat32... thats a different story... and I think according to MS is not possilbe, although I've heard of ways to do it.

Converting from FAT32 to NTFS will give you huge cluster sizes... i mean big... like a gazillion KB... oops.. maybe not that big. J/K str8lazy. I read the cluster size and i was like whoa dude...

How big is your hdd BTW? Can you afford the slack space that this going to create?

[str8lazy]

Its a 40 GB

Depending on how much your HDD is already filled up, I would suggest converting it PM 8.0 so that you can keep your cluster size down to a minimum.

yeah I got about 3 GB left, I will probably just do it in PM8, after I free up some more space I guess.
