One last post on the subject and I'll be quiet.
Several people have pointed out that NTFS does have some
self-repair capabilities that FAT doesn't. Floyd Sense pointed
me to www.ntfs.com where there is a good discussion on the
subject.
I have had some odd little file corruption problems lately such
as dual icons appearing in the tooltray for no apparent reason,
and a few other minor annoyances. I'm going reinstall XP using
NTFS and see what happens. I'll give it a couple of weeks and if
anyone wants my opinion on the difference, email me and I'll be
glad to report.
