I have Win2k installed on my laptop and the hd came from dell formatted fat. I split the partition into system & programs / all other files (i did this so i can reformat and reinstall the os and programs but not have to backup my files. If I use partition magic to move over to the NTFS, what issues am I faced with. I am not running any other OS (well actually RH7, but i dont care if it can see the partition).
