My computer's Bios supports LBA. Some of the partitions type changed so now I don't know if a partition is a FAT32 or a FAT32X. What should I do now? This should not usually concern you. Why do think it might be a problem?

What should I do now? I'm sure a utility I was using changed some of the partition characteristics of several of the partitions. For example, the type of partition may have been changed from FAT32 to FAT32X or from FAT32X to FAT32. What is the significance of such a change? Could there be negative consequences? ______________________________________________________ >-----Original Message----- >This should not usually concern you. Why do think it might be a problem?

A "partition" utility which could, for example, change a partition from active to inactive or possibly hide a partition. ________________________________________________ >-----Original Message----- >What utility were you using ?
