OK, so I've got this dual boot setup with 98 FE and Windows XP. Yesterday, I felt like Santa and gave each of my OSes the latest critical updates and everything. I then went in PartitionMagic, and put the 98 partition and the Programs partition (I have 3 partitions on this comp, 1 for 98, 1 for XP and 1 for programs). I saw there was a converting option for converthing those to "FAT32 4k per cluster" or somethign like that. Choose that, let it do it's work during the night, then today, I try to boot up 98, which I like better btw, and it says "invalid system disk. Please replace and press any key", as if it had a disk in the Floppy drive, but there wasn't. so now I can'T go back into 98, as it won't let me boot ! (currently typing on XP). What to do with this problem ???

Nevermind, I fixed it myself ! :) :D I converted the "new" fat32 to FAT, then to "old" FAT32, now it works !
