Changing to NTFS from FAT32 in win2k

[BonedAgain]

Have a dual boot/dual hdd system w/win2k on each hdd. Both had been FAT32 (pc came with (woe is)ME). Recently reinstalled win2k on the original hdd from which the pc boots (though I typically run the win2k on the newer/larger drive) and at the time I converted this original drive to NTFS. I'd like to convert the newer/larger drive to NTFS as well. Can I do this w/o having to do a complete reinstall & losing all my programs, settings, etc?

TIA
