Assuming you're using XP open a command prompt, run -> cmd, and type
CONVERT C: /FS:NTFS

There is no way in xp to do this. You will have to use a third party app such as partition magic.

Why in the world would you want to do this?

You can't go back from NTFS to FAT without having to reformat the drive.
