Hi all,
I have an old portable external HDD that I use to swap between my main
PC (WinXP Home SP2) and my old WinME notebook. This external HDD is
FAT32 and has a lot of junk on it. I wanted to reformat the drive
(staying with FAT32) but when I went to Computer Management -> Storage
-> Disk Management, and right-click the above-mentioned drive and
select Format, the File System dropdown list only lists NTFS.
I recall about a week ago that that dropdown had FAT16, FAT32, and
NTFS. What happened to my two FATxx options? I haven't made any changes
on my PC since the last time I actually saw those two options.
Thanks in advance.
