Since you've waited this long, if you can wait until Friday if no one comes up with a clearer answer by then, I'll try it on mine. I have a similar scenario where I have 3 partitions, 2 of which I'd like to switch. I might give it a shot on Friday, but I don't want to do it before then because I want to make some backups first and that will give me the weekend to restore things if I have to start from scratch.

Actually you can, even with NTFS, you'll see NTFS partitions as NON-DOS partition :wink:
