Win 98/Fat32 can handle a 17gig partition? Or did I misunderstand. Yes it can. I just tried it. I had a Win98 6 gig FAT 32 partition with the rest free space. I just resized to 10 gig and she still works. Explorer shows 10 gig. I left some free space for now..still deciding what to do. There is a message as you pass the 1024 cyl (8.4 gig) mark warning the drive may not boot. I took the chance and it did. No lockups during the boot process with Partition Magic..I was crossing my fingers. My original problems were with Partition Magic Ver 3.0. As Dave pointed out 3.0 does not support 8.4 + gig. I upgraded to 4.0 and was able to format a full 17 using Partition Magic in Win95. Zeuspaul
