Exclamation Hard Disk Bogus

I have a WD 20Gb hard disk and i had 3 partitions on it.
C: 7Gb, D: 7Gb and E: 6Gb.
Now Im thinking of formatting my hardisk to get them NTFS formatted, esp my C:. My programs become somewhat crazy after my bro mess up my C:. So i thought if i get my C: NTFS formatted, i'll be able to restrict access rite??

Or is there any other way?? another concern will be the activation of my Win XP?

Can someone advise?? Thanks!

I would definately go with NTFS its faster and more secure.

Yes you can restrict usage to files, folders etc also.

You can convert from Fat32 to NTFS without loosing any data
