Larry, thanks for the reply.

>>I planed to ditch FAT on C:, convert to NTFS (is it still called NTFS in W2K?)
>and have W2K installed on C: only. Can I do this with the W2K upgrade, or will I have to buy the full version in order to install from scratch?

The upgrade will do it as well.<

Do you know how I would go about this in practice? What would be the sequence, bearing in mind I have to...
a) Increase the size of the C: partition to 5.5G by removing drive F: (can I do this without resorting to a 3rd-party tool like Partition Magic?)
b) Convert C: to NTFS (which would render the Win98 installation on C: useless)
c) Install the W2K upgrade over NTWS (which is on D:), but this defeats the object of getting W2K on C:. Or should I install W2K over Win98 on C:?

Help! This is getting confusing!

Regards,
Alan
