Re: Can XP be installed on a Fat32 partition?

Yes, XP supports FAT32

I have never installed XP, but when I installed Win2k, I had the
option of using NTFS or Fat32. I'd rather use Fat32 because I can
access my files from Dos and I still use some Dos programs too. I
want to upgrade from Win2K to XP, but prefer keeping the Fat32
partitions. Is this possible?

Thanks
