Not that i know of (i think i've done it like that myself once way back too). If the drive is in use it will start converting on next reboot.

How to Convert FAT Disks to NTFS
Ofcourse it's always recommended to back up your data.

P.S i updated my post, i forgot the command itself...sowwy :P

just start your computer with a bootdisk with convert on it ;)

No need to shift hard disks, did it this way myself on my old computer, worked like a charm! :D

EDIT: BTW, you can't go back from NTFS to FAT32 :P. If you want that you have to reformat, but why would you want to go back to FAT32? :P

I made one for you :)

Just unzip it to a floppy and reboot your computer, and everything should work.

When your computer boots, just type "convert C: FS:NTFS /X" or something like that ;) (without the "" ;))
