[filmscanners] RE: Switch from Win98SE to XP?
I'm using Win2K, rather than XP, but I think the robustness of the NT kernel
and file system makes the changeover worthwhile. Personally, I recommend
running NTFS, because it's so much more reliable than FAT32, although a good
argument can be made for reserving a FAT32 partition for temp files, because
it's faster. The end result will be far fewer system crashes (if any), and
an end to "lost cluster chains" in ScanDisk.
