The OS is Windows XP Professionsl. The storage is composed of 3 partitions,
basic fat Healthy (EISA configuration), basic fat 32 Healthy (Unknown
partition), and the basic NTFS Healthy(system) partitions. What are the
consequences of deleting the 'basic fat 32 Healthy(unknown partition).'

Thank you
 
sometimes depending on where you purchased your computer the extra partion
can be used as your Restore. Some manufactures will put a ghost clone of
your Operating System in that partion so if you ever had to revert back you
can.
Also Some hd's require a partion for its system info.
I would not delete this partion.
If you did- you might not get XP to work properly and you will wind up
reformating the partion and putting XP back on it.
