I have a Windows Media Center laptop formatted as Fat32. I have a desktop pc with wxp home. On the desktop I have a 2nd drive formatted with ntfs that is shared over my home network. The drive has 4 partitions of which one is reserved to backup my laptop. When I used maxblast 4.0's drive to drive copy or partition to partition the program crashes. MAxblast works on other copies, so I am wondering if this has to do with trying to copy from fat32 to ntfs. Any comments? Thanks.
Give me some credit. It came pre partitioned with 2 fat32 partitions. Main and data. Acer did that. Never paid much attention til now. I know I can easily convert to ntfs. As soon as back it up, I'll give it a go. I backed it up a while back using maxblast with out a problem (on an external drive - not networked). Maybe going across the network is the prob - maybe some preinstalled acer software is blocking. tks.
Oh, I didn't mean any offense, I just thought you needed for linux or some other reason. Changing it like you said might just be the best thing you can do. How big is the harddrive?
