When I follow microsoft instructions to covert drive c:
from fat32 to ntfs the command prompt ask for current
volume label. I do not know where to find it, am I
converting correctly? The conversion instructions did not
indicate that the volume label would be requested.

Volume label is a name for a drive. i.e. Local disk or Fred or whatever.
To see what yours is...
Open My Computer | Right click your Hard Drive | Properties | On the General
tab in the top box is a name highlighted in blue. That's the volume label.

volume
[[An area of storage on a hard disk. A volume is formatted by using a file
system, such as FAT or NTFS, and has a drive letter assigned to it. You can
view the contents of a volume by clicking its icon in Windows Explorer or in
My Computer. A single hard disk can have multiple volumes, and volumes can
also span multiple disks.]]
