    Alright so i had a ntfs partitioned bootcamp drive but it was to small so I wanted to make it bigger. I used winclone to copy the drive, deleted the partition, mad a new partition with bootcamp but i forgot that it makes a fat32 partition. I had made it ntfs when I was installing windows.

    Now what I need to be able to do is convert the fat32 drive to ntfs so that I can put tha windows image on there and not have the partition be resized smaller...

    When you run WinClone Restore to put your image back onto the new partition, it will take care of this for you. You will end up with an NTFS partition of whatever new size you selected in BootCamp Assistant.
