XP is up and running with Boot Camp.😎

Would it be possible to split part of the XP partition off with Partitio Magic?
XP drive is formated in NTFS, could make a 5G partition in Fat32 for transferring files between XP & Mac😕
 
Just convert the entire Windows partition to FAT32... or do you need NTFS for some reason?
 
?

When I was looking around, came across some posts that indicated NTFS might be a little more stable, faster, better than Fat32, and I don't see myself doing much file transfer so went with . Was more curious than anything else.

Switching from XP:
Main reason for wanting to keep XP - Microsoft Money & Quicken (Quicken does not make it easy to take files between mac & pc and I like PC version better) .
 
NTFS *is* better, but as a secondary operating system, that wouldn't be an issue.
