I installed mandrake 9 yesterday to dual boot with my win2k box. On my boot drive I had 2 ntfs partitions originally. In windows, I reformatted the extended partion to fat32 and ran the linux install. In there, I had to(maybe not, but I'm a linux noob) delete the fat32 partition and let it automatically creeate 3 partitions. Finished install and Mandrake and LILO works fine. However in windows whenever I open 'my computer', 'disk management' or anything that has a link to the old fat32 drive, explorer hangs or crashes. Unfortunately there are no events logged in teh event viewer. Bootup and shutdown, seem to wait around a while more than they did before as well. Any ideas to fix explorer?
