Well, that's not exactly true. NT4 cannot see, read or write FAT32
partitions,
just as Win95/DOS is unable to see NTFS partitions.
You sure you don't have NT4 installed on different partition ... if you
indeed
have converted FAT16 to FAT32 ...

oh, and by the way i here 95b wont dual boot (no nt)
I have run N2 with 95a and b, I wouldn't bet on this being your problem.
Do u run a intell or a clone chip ?
I also run 95b with FAT32, and have no problems with n2 either. As long as
you have the patches from Papy, this shouldn't be your problem.
I installed N2 on 95B without the patches and it ran fine with the FAT32. I
did notice that if I were in the dos mode that it took longer to load if I
didn't have smartdrive loaded.
