When there are more than 300,000 files copied to a folder the performance reduces, looking for more information on this. I have tried NTFS limitation of 8.3 naming convention issues. It has not solved the issue. Can someone give me a solution

Question... Why do older programs written for Windows 95, 98, 98SE FAT32 not work on XP systems that are NTFS? (Right, I'm not a guru.) And, is there a way to make them work correctly?
The programs right now, that a fairly large group of MIDI file users & sequencers are interested in making work are: Voyetra Digital Orchestrator Pro and MIDI Tool Box. I can supply these programs to any guru who would be interested in taking on this challenge. Please write to: no1jazzcat@yahoo.com

Need help. Error found:

An NTFS partition has been detected........
This usually indicates an unformatted partition.
Run NT disk administrator.

I have Formatted and even wrote zeros to HD. How can I fix this? Where can I get a program to fix it? No OS, nothing on drive. Trying to install OS.
Please help. TY.

Don't listen to J. Russell; he knows not of what he speaks. NTFS has nothing to do with what games or other software work--although the OS itself could. Applications don't concern themselves with that; file system drivers do that work. The truth is that NTFS is vastly superior to FAT and FAT32. Period.

Great Article! Word to the wise is never go to this great system. Fat32 is much better! NTFS is next to impossible to get rid of. I have it and have all the problems that go with it and they are many. My computer is the most unstable that it has ever been and I can no longer get into DOS to do my work. Many games are not designed to run on this NTFS and programs that say they will run on it will not. Geanealogy programs are nearly imposible to install on NTFS. Stick with Fat 32 if you have it and fight the change.
