Fat 32 and NTFS Partions Help

On any given computer, you cannot access a FAT32 partition from Windows NT Workstation 4.0. Also, on that same computer, you can't see the NTFS partition when running Windows 95/98.

It's different when you use a network. Let's say you have one computer running Windows 98, networked with another computer running Windows NT Workstation 4.0.  You can work with files over the network even if you use FAT32 on the Windows machine and NTFS on the NT 4.0 Workstation machine.

But suppose your Windows 98 computer can dual-boot and therefore has an NTFS partition. You will not see that partition on either computer. You can't see it because Windows 98 doesn't recognize NTFS.
