Marcus, I sent it via email so as not to slow down the response. At work I don't have access to the newsserver due to corporate firewall policies and I have noted that whatever I send by email to the list takes about 6-10 hours to come through. Don't know why. Ask Tony maybe? Also, when one hits Reply to a message from the CVSNT list the address extracted is NOT the list address as is customary, instead it is the poster's own address. So in order to send to the list I have to manually delete your address and instead dig up the list address from my address book.... This is a quirk with the CVSNT list that one is not affected if one uses the newsserver instead, but as I said I can't do that at work unfortunately. :-( The alternative is to never answer anything from the list until the evening back home. Regarding the NTFS conversion: I have done this several times and what happens is that NT recognizes that the current drive (or the system drive) is the target and suggests to schedule it for the next reboot. This usually works fine, but of course it delays the boot a bit. /Bo -----Original Message----- From: Marcus Fuchs [mailto:Marcus_news at web.de] Sent: den 4 december 2002 20:09 To: cvsnt at cvsnt.org cvsnt downloads at march-hare.com @CVSNT on Twitter CVSNT on Facebook Subject: Re: [cvsnt] Compulsary to have ntfs for w2k pro Bo Berglund wrote: Why did you send this via mail? > On the command prompt: > convert c: /fs:ntfs /v On my system this should be: convert g: /fs:ntfs /v > Extended information from the help in WinXP: > ------------------------------------------- > Convert Converts FAT and FAT32 volumes to NTFS.

And that's the problem, while the help of Win2k only says that the current drive can't be converted. There is nothing said, that it would prompt me if I would like to do it after a restart. So I'm not quite sure, while the programm could be changed in WinXP? Marcus -- Have you read the last posts? Have you searched in one of the newsgroups-archives? You don't know one?
