hello,
I have an older machine running windows 98SE and a small hard drive 20GB. In order to upgrade from PS7 to CS I have bought and installed a large HD (120 GB).
The file type of the old and new drives are still Fat32 and I want/need the new one to be NTFS for CS apparently, but when I launch Partition Magic and want to convert the drive from Fat32 I find that the NTFS option is greyed out and unavailable.
Should I install a copy of Windows XP on the new hard drive and then will the option to convert to ntfs become available? If I do this then I’d still have 98SE on the old drive which is useful for maintaining what I have on there I guess. Or do I have to upgrade from 98to XP and only have the one OS on one drive.
Can someone help me out on this?
thanks
