It is doing so now ( xp boot) on ntfs. Should I redo this to make it a
primary?

You said it was booting up ok
so that means it works.
there should be no problems other than maybe slighlty slower access time...

dang it. I'm a gamer. Access time is important ;o)
Thanks for replies.
It's only another couple of hours to fix......

No. XP (windows) is running on a logical drive within an extended
partition.
Redo it? It didn't get that unusual way by itself.
