Partition Problem
I have Pentium Dual Core CPU with D945GNT MBD and 200GB Harddisk.
The first Partition is of 80GB and rest three partitions of 40GB each. I have installed Win2K prof. on the 80gb partition and Win XP on the second 40GB partition. The problem i am facing is that one of the 40GB partition is not accessible thru Win 2K. whereas it works fine with WinXP Can Anybody give me a solution for the problem. Thanks Shashank

Partition Problem
Hmmm. Peculiar. Is this a particular quirk of the combination of
installing Windows 2000 and Windows XP as you describe it, or could the problem be duplicated in a Windows 2000 only setup? John M. Rajesh wrote: Hi this happens when you have installed 2000 on a FAT32 partition and XP on a NTFS partition and then converted the other partitions to NTFS.

So, at that point you have all NTFS partitions, and one of them (the one you
converted) got corrupted in the process. It is not the same as mixing fat32 and NTFS partitions on the same computer - which is done quite frequently. -- Regards, Richard Urban Microsoft MVP Windows Shell/User (For email, remove the obvious from my address) Quote from George Ankner: If you knew as much as you think you know, You would realize that you don't know what you thought you knew!

Read the original post **POP**
The first reply indicates that the O/P has problems because he has a combination of fat32 and NTFS.
