Whoah! KLet's be clear about what you are all talking about. Win4Lin does not care what the filesystem is, because it uses the Linux kernel to handle that. This allows you to install Windows on any filesystem supported by Linux. if Win4Lin could not support NTFS it is because Linux did not support NTFS. Win4Lin does not support the NT based version of Windows right now, only the 9x series. This is not because of the filesystem, but because of the structure of the OS itself. -- Greg
