I'm having nothing but problems with my large NTFS formatted data volume on Area 51. Vista erased all the data on it during the installation (nothing much); then reported errors and fixed them on reboot. Windows 2000 reported errors, and also had at it. Then, when I booted back into Vista, more errors, more fixes, more data loss.
Now, I'm reformatting the whole volume in Vista. I put a test file on the newly formatted volume, and boot into Windows 2000. No luck -- check disk runs again. It’s time to reformat as FAT32, but of course Vista only formats NTFS. Sheesh.

Win2K isn’t complaining about the F: disk this time. More updates, and hardware lacking drivers.
