I noticed that in Partition Magic it has a tool that will convert your fat32 drive to NTFS. Has anyone done this with Partition Magic? I would really like to use NTFS but don't want to format or lose my files when I convert. You comments would be appreciated.

It works. You can also convert back (unlike Microsoft's converter.) I never lost any files doing it. I did it both ways because I decided I did not like NTFS because I do a lot of repair and maintenance work on my system from a DOS boot floppy, and NTFS is not seen by DOS. So, I went back to FAT 32.
