"you can, but I am pretty sure he is in NTFS....."

Yes, I'm in NTFS. Thank you everyone for your replies into the early morning hours.

When I ran CHKDISK, I received several lines of data saying CHKDISK was repairing/restoring orphaned files such as system.log. A lot of the files it was repairing had a .log extension.

I'm surprised I can even be online like this. I'm now looking into how to reinstall/repair Windows, or whether I should just reinstall Windows period.

In terms of data, I have no Word, PowerPoint, Excel, etc. documents that I need to keep. I have no MPEG, AVI, MP3 files, etc. that I need either. What I need to make sure that I don't lose are my bookmarks/links in IE and Mozilla. If I lose those then I'm screwed! I can't imagine having to go back and redo all of my bookmarks.

Thanks again for your help!

Not if he upgraded to XP from a prior version of Windows. Windows ME, 98, and 2000 all supported FAT32 as native formats.
