NT does not have to be installed on a NTFS partition.  It can be
installed on FAT or NTFS.

I'm not sure if you can upgrade 98 to NT without formatting the drive to
NTFS first.  

I've installed NT a few times and it's one of the hardest OS's to
install.  If NT doesn't support one of your devices you have to put one
in that it will support, and that's not going to happen with a laptop.

You might want to check first and see if there are NT drivers for your
laptop devices.

Hello,

Sorry this is not a CF question, but any insight is appreciated. I'm
trying to upgrade a laptop from Win 98 to Win NT 4.0, but I get the
flooiwng error either when I boot w/the Win NT cd-rom or load it while
Win 98 is running: 

"Setup unable to install winnt boot loader. Ensure c: drive is formatted
and drive is not damaged. Setup cannot continue"

Anything I need to know here?

Thanks!
