If I install Win2k on an NTFS partition will it be able to read and write to my Fat32 partitions? I can't seem to find an answer anywhere about this without actually trying out myself.

Uh, yes, we had posted a discussion about this issue a few weeks ago. A few of us were surprised to learn, contrary to what we had been told, that WinXP computers (NTFS) can network and write to Win 98 (FAT32) computers and vice versa. What can't be done is a Win98 computer reading an NTFS hard drive installed on the same computer.

Well, um, that too can be done when you buy third party software. Don't know the name of it, and don't have time to look it up, but I know it can be done.
