Based on "what is filesystem", you need to visit your local public

Windows XP is limited in that it can not create a FAT32 partition larger
than 32GB, however it can use a partition that is larger than 32GB if
you use a third party software application to create and format the
partition.

For the info on FAT32 see: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310525/en-us
