I have several large 100G+ hard drives that I swap between my laptop and various other systems. I am using XP Home and have tried formating as FAT32 with My Computer, Explorer, Microsoft Management Console/Disk Manager, and from the command line interface with “format drive: /fs:fat32 /q” but they all only allow NTFS partitions.
