Microsoft has (for whatever reason - probably to encourage us all to move to
NTFS) limited Win2K/XP's ability to format FAT32 to volumes no larger than
32 GB. Win2K/XP can format larger drives than are on the market today to
NTFS. And, if you use Format.exe while running Win98, for example, you can
format drives as large as about 127 GB as FAT32; after formatting by the
other OS, Win2K/XP will happily use the whole thing.
Yes I am having the same problem in Win2K SP4, I need
volumes larger than 32GB. Is there another way around
this besides having to use Win98.
Also I was told for multi track audio recording to use
FAT32 with a 32K cluster size. Another question is when
in the format window it ask for allocation unit size, if
I select 32K does is this the same as a 32K cluster size?
