Hey guys,

I'm new to XP and ran into a problem.

We have all NT 4.0 workstations at my work. I have XP Home edition at home. When myself or a customer brings in a Zip or CD-R /RW disk that has been formatted and writtn by Xp, NT will not recognize or read it. If I format a Zip ir CD with NT, XP will read and use it though?

I cannot find anything on this anywhere. Usually I would say oh well, but we have customers bringing files in and that cannot read.

Any and all help would be appreciated

The likely culprit that springs to mind: FAT32.

XP sees and uses FAT32, FAT16, and NTFS.

NT sees and uses FAT16 and NTFS, though a slightly older version (which could possibly present a problem, but I'd doubt it).

Solutions?

Don't format your disks on an XP box.
Upgrade your NT boxes to XP.
