I KNow I've been a bit pesty today but would appreciate a few comments on my Win98/2KPro setup.

I'm going to formatc: and repartition my 15G GXP75.
On it I will have W98SE/Win2KPro my proggies and my SWAP (about 1GB part I was thinking)
I have 5GB W98SE+proggies at the moment but that's pretty well not enough so, I'm going to repartition to maybe 1/8/6 or something like that.

Just wondering;
1. Where the swap file partiton can go - I know it should be at the outer of the disk for speed.
2. I guess I cant NTFS the partition unless I do a seperate part for Win2KPro.

My Vid Cap card. modems, LAN and USBCam arent supported by Win2K so until I get new ones - looks like Win98SE is there to stay. I really only want 2KPro for Daikin Scenarist DVD authoring - but that may generate some serious files for my FT66RAID+0 2x15G GXP75 Setup hanging off my PCI bus...ie: seperate to the above.

comments and suggestions appreciated - will probably reformat Monday - by hook or by crook...
PS- I have Partiton Magic - and will take a look at that as well.
TIA
