I have a 250GB harddrive with about 125GB partitioned and
formatted. I was wondering how you partition and format
the remaining space. Also, I have a my old drive with
files on it that I want to transfer over. I would like to
know how to do this. XP is using NTFS and Win98 of course
is FAT32, are these compatitable with each other as far as
the files go.

Thanks for the help

Hi,

You do not need to transfer files. Just install the old
drive to you new computer.

To partition and format the remaining space I recomend to
get Partition Magic from PowerQuest, you will be able to
do that with no previous expirience.

Any file sistems are compatible with Windows XP at the
same time.
