Dunno bout the first part, buy ya, u cant use that drive formated as NTFS on windows 98, it cant see it.
If it was my tech problem to solve. I would download/get/buy a xp bootable disc, boot to the cd, and install that onto the 40g drive.
You can reformat the ntfs drive if you want, to fat, or fat 32, but then you would have to run 98.
If u insist on running 2000, I dunno. Check in ur bios to see taht you are booting from the correct drive, etc.
Oh, so thats why I can't see the drive when I use it as slave on win98, thanks. So how do I format a nfts hard drive. I can't get format C: to work (nfts isn't dos) and fdisk says there's no disks present. I'll try and play about with the bios.
