Converting Fat32 to NTFS

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.help_and_support (More info?)

Want to convert 2nd hard drive to NTFS.
Currently is set as Fat32.
Will I lose data doing this ?
Will applications that run under Fat32 run under NTFS ?
Of greater importance what applications that run under Fat32
will not run under NTFS ?
Thank you for your assistance.

Data should be safe and your applications will still run.
Back-up important data just in case.
