- BUT, THIS ONLY WORKS IF YOU ARE RUNNING ON A FAT, if you installed NT on to
- a NTFS partition (like I did) you can't access it from dos, to change
- drivers, or to install the SDK of of a non-supported CD drive. (Ba Humbug!)
-
- PS:
-
- Is there a way to convert a NTFS partition back into a FAT with out
- reformating & reinstalling NT?
-
- Is there a way to allow (device driver/TSR) DOS to access an NTFS partition?
