    I am a glutton for punishment.

    Thinking about adding XP Prof to my
    box as a 3rd OS. (Have 98 & 2000 Advanced
    Server already on it.)

    With Win2000, I had to put the OS on
    a FAT32 in order to dual boot properly.

    Question:

    Does XP Prof need to be on a FAT32
    partition to work with the others ?

    Or does it demand it's own NTFS partition ?

    Many Thanks,
