Boot up prob w/ 2nd drive
I had recently formatted a second hard rive (20 gig Maxtor) on my system to NTFS after having used it for Linux for some time. My intention was to use this drive for backup purposes and for storage of large files. I am running Win2k on an 8gig Maxtor drive currently, NTFS. Everything was fine...- bilmcchr
