How can I convert NTFS to a Fat 32 File system?

[M.B>]

I have Windows 98 installed on my computer and I just switched from Fat 32 to
NTFS. Once I changed over to NTFS I could not go back into Windows 98 to
uninstall the program. Could this be a chase where I need to covert back to
Fat32 and then re-enter Windows 98 and Unistall everything so I can get more
Space on my memeory.

Windows 98 will only run on FAT32 systems, not NTFS. I don't believe
there's a way to convert back from NTFS, but check in the Windows News Group
to make sure. (You've posted this question in the Microsoft Access database
News Group, so you have plenty of database experts here, but most aren't
Windows system administrators.)

If you can't convert back, then you'll need to restore from a full backup or
else reformat the hard drive for FAT32 using a disk management utility, then
reinstall the Windows 98 operating system. Depending upon the type of
backups you do, you may be able to restore your applications from a backup,
or you may need to completely reinstall them from the CD's.

HTH.

You'll stand a better chance of getting an answer if you ask this in a
newsgroup related to Windows 98 (or whatever operating system you installed
to upgrade to NTFS)

This newsgroup is for questions about Access, the database product that's
part of Office Professional.

In order to convert back, you will need 3rd party software such as Partition
Magic which is owned by Symantec now and not Power Quest. No guarantees on
fli flopping like that though. Back up your data first before doing it
though.
