When I install the OS in Virtual PC ...



if I format in ntfs, can the drive still be dynamically updated, or will it not work and I must install via fat32?

    The dynamically resizing drive is file-system agnostic, afaik.

    In that case...



    under vpc, is there a recommendation?



    normally on a pc box, i'd do ntfs...



    but i haven't tried under vpc [w/a mac yet] ???



    thanks

    OK so I have my PowerBook G4 12" with 640 RAM and Virtual PC 6. I installed Windows 2000 SP2 with NTFS. I assume NTFS is better? It's the native 2000 file format so it should be better than FAT32 right?
