    this may link into what FAT you chose, but im a bit stuck at the mo...

    ive borrowed a copy from work, so i can try it out to make sure i like the interface, etc.

    however, ive been limited to 3331MB partition on a 3316MB drive???

    i booted off the floppy set i made, and used NTFS. would booting off the cd help, or is NTFS the limiting factor? this is kinda important, as i plan to have a 40GB drive, and dont want to be limited to a scratty little partition on it.

    thanks.

    1) NTFS and FAT32
    2) FAT32

    If you've got an ATI card, just don't. Trust me - I know <IMG SRC="smilies/frown.gif" border="0">

    Win2k supports Fat16/32 and NTFS. It gets better performance overall because it is a full 32 bit OS as opposed to partial 16 bit.
