[access-uk] FAT32 and NTFS on same system

When my Toshiba laptop (XP Pro) was originally set up for me, the c
partition was made smaller than I would like and although I have plenty of
space in other partitions I have to watch the free space on C: very carefully.
one thing I do occasionally is to move any $NTuninstall items from
c:\Windows onto another partition, to free up space. I did this today but
after moving over 300 mb, the free space on the partition is shown as being
unchanged, which seems very odd.
Two other things about this c partition surprrise me. For some reason, it is
using FAT32 whilst the other two are NTFS. Also the Defragmenter
analysis has for a long time reported "The partition does not need to be
defragmented", yet the other two have to be defragmented fairly frequently.
I am concerned that the FAT32 is at the root of my odd situation, but would
be grateful for any comments or suggestions.
Many thanks,
Douglas
