Will Vista run on FAT 32 ?

Posted: 01-19-2009, 06:22 AM
I just ran the vista advisor from Microsoft and it said my 160 GB FAT 32 Hard
drive was acceptable. I was under the impression that Vista required NTFS.

I don't like the convert command because it loses some performance and has
other issues.

I can format and partition another 160 GB Hard Drive to NTFS and then use
Acronis to copy partions (it will copy the files from an image without
copying the FAT 32 format). The only problem is that it will take more than
four hours. Does anyone know of a quicker method?
