Start menu > run > cmd >
convert c: /fs:ntfs
Change "c:" to whatever drive letter you are wanting to convert.
It will ask for the name of the volume to confirm. If it has one it will be listed a couple lines above. If it doesn't have one just leave blank and hit enter.
Type "y" to any other questions.
Hope that helps. :)

Thank u jlreich. That is exactly the command I'm searching for. U know, a friend used it a couple of years back but I didn't deem it necessary to write it down then. Thanks man.

Just make sure you're running Windows 2000/XP/Vista. Otherwise, ocnverting to NTFS will render DOS/Windows 9x unbootable.
