Hi Patricia,

Can't answer that this minute, as I'm booted into the wrong computer. There
are various possibilities for the anomaly, including my use of Partition
Magic (but an older version) for creating many of these partitions. Or, W2K
may have done something funky with the C:, when its boot loader files went
on, or when they were updated for SP4.

I'm not qualified to say, but you raise some interesting questions.
