hello,
I have Windows Xp Pro, installed with FAT32 partitions.
Is it possible to convert to NTFS Partitions without having to reformat all my hard drives (4 fitted on onboard raid controller)
Thanks in advance.

I think this is what you want to do. Good luck. Just remember you can't go back unless you format but I don't know why you would want to go back.
Convert FAT to NTFS

Q: Is it possible to convert a FAT32 Hard Drive to NTFS without losing all data on the drive? I like to change from FAT32 to NTFS, my operating system is Windows XP PRO, how can I do that? Without the lost of my programs?

A: Standard Windows utility that is called CONVERT serves this purpose
​
Just go to the Command Prompt and execute the command:



C:\> CONVERT C: /fs:ntfs
</pre> Where C: is a name of the drive you want to convert.

After machine re-boot conversion process will start and you'll have your FAT32 converted to NTFS without of data loss.
