Re: [L-OT] XP-FAT32 to NTFS on audio drive

2002-08-10 by gramjess2002

Hi I suggest using partition magic from 
http://www.powerquest.com/ make a backup rescue diskettes to 2 floppy
diskettes with PM pro7  
reformat C drive FAT 32 then reinstall XP or you could try option COPY
PARTITION... methinks you need a 3rd drive though depends how full
your drives are. Wincommander will see the data from both drives at
once also the data has nothing to do with the format of the drives so
a cdwriter will also work. I suggest you use a tower case and 2
removable cradles and caddies and run cable select on the ide cable to
both drives..hope this helps
