I think to change the file system on your hard disk, you need to reformat your hard disk in NTFS format. That means reinstalling Windows, etc. There is no option to just switch between formats; hard reformatting is required. To reformat in in the NTFS file format, I think you also need a higher version than Windows 98 (e.g., Windows 2000, XP). Double check to make sure you're extracting the files to your hard drive, not to a floppy drive or a small Flash drive.

You don't have to reformat, Partition magic 8 allows you to change your drives file system to many different kinds and it does it when you restart your computer.

Sorry. Once again, I flaunt my ignorance. Hope you didn't go and reformat everything.

Is that the trial version, or only the paid one?

I'm not sure how partition magic works with this feature, but in general when you convert from a FAT32 partition to an NTFS partition you loose efficiency because of the larger cluster size in FAT32. It should still work, but the performance wouldn't be the same as a formatted NTFS partition (although you'd probably never notice).
