  Hi Shamil,

  Try here:  http://www.microsoft.com/technet/treeview/default.asp?url=/technet/prodtechnol/windowsserver2003/proddocs/standard/convert.asp

  Converts file allocation table (FAT) and FAT32 volumes to the NTFS file system, leaving existing files and folder intact. Volumes converted to the NTFS file system cannot be converted back to FAT or FAT32.

    Hi All,

    Subj should be easy(?) to do but this isn't my area of expertise - I
    remember I did convert partitions to NTFS under W2K in its Disk Manager. I
    guess system partition can't be converted so easily, can it be?
    I've W2K dieskettes and can boot from them - is that the way to go? If yes,
    what commands should I use to do conversion of course without deleting
    partition contents....

    TIA,
    Shamil
