I had fat 16 when I first got my system, 4-2GB partitions. I finally got brave and a few months ago, fdisked, and made one large C drive for my whole 8.4GB. It is a big improvement. If you stay with fat 16, there is a 2GB limit on partition size.

Omega: Besides the size limit on partitions that Ginny spoke of, FAT32 also uses disk space more efficiently. FAT16, on a 2GB partition, creates a cluster size of 32K so even a 1K file takes up 32K of disk space. FAT32, on the other hand, creates a cluster size of 4K regardless of the partition size so utilization of disk space is better.......
