If you want to format the portable drive (if you wan't for example, connect to the DVD player) on a FAT32 file system when its size is over 32GB, we encounter an unexpected problem. Windows will not allow us to format the drive in FAT32 instead of NTFS format will propose. To circumvent the problem, we can use a boot disk and format the drive but it would be too burdensome. - Instead, download the fat32format.zip (by which format the 1TB drive for example) and unpack it to any path. Then enter the command prompt (start menu> run> "cmd"). You should log on as an administrator or run the command line by going to Start> Programs> Accessories and select right-click "Command Prompt" and from the context menu choose "Run as administrator" We should check twice what the drive letter of your disk is going into eg the Computer Management> Disk Management, or by using diskpart - Navigate to the path where you unpack file for example by typing cd C: \ Documents and Settings \ user \.
- Type fat32 format g: (if your portable drive letter is g:) After a while, your disk is formatted
