I re-installed win2000, VSNET2003, and everything was fine.
Suddenly, PC locked up and now on boot thinks my fat32 drive is ntfs ? ? ?
Is there a way to manually make it recognize/mount it as fat32?

Resolved.
My mouse was low on batteries, and caused this again.
When the PC locks up, it is fragmenting files. I waited two minutes, and resumed my windows session. Eventually the wrong file will get fragmented, and your fat32 is quasi-recognized as ntfs. The quasi is the problem.
Why does your mouse cause windows to lockup when it dies? Is there seperate software that came with your mouse? If so you should check for updates. That's very strange and it shouldn't happen...glad you resolved the issue though.
What the ***, i gotta log in 4 times just to get in....
I have noticed this behavior several times before with other hardware etc. but never dawned on me. I think it is either a radio wave problem, like cell phone interference, or the mouse is inputing randomly generated click/scroll/move etc very quickly.Quote:

I recommend against any radio device near your PC, especially when programming.
Thanks for the reply1
