Can you Convert C: drive with FAT to NTFS and retain your NT OS???

Yes

use the convert tool convert x: /fs:ntfs (you maybe need to reboot and it will change before windows starts, it's also very fast).

Just a sidenote though, this will use NTFS with 512B clusters, you get much better performance from the drive with 4kB clusters. Of course large clusters waste a bit of disk space, but if you have a multigig hard drive, that shouldn't matter much.
 
Keep in mind that the file allocation table (there is a different name for it with NTFS but it's the same monkey) will run slower on a converted NTFS than on a native one.

If you don't need the security that NTFS adds, I would honestly recommend sticking with FAT.... NTFS actually gets fragmented faster than FAT.

The NTFS version in Win2K does have some improvements, but again, I would stick with FAT.
