How do you partition fat32 hard drive?
819055
and what is the problem? any way you like, but there is one limitation, you can't repartition drive where windows is already installed using windows partition utility, so anyway it's better to use 3d party partitions progs. for example disk director.

Do NOT use Partition Magic! I have seen it completely corrupt hard drives many times!\n\nIf you have everything backed up, the easiest way is to boot of the Windows CD and re-parition it during the installation.  Just follow the insructions.

If you drive is formatted using FAT16 the drive can store 512 files in a root folder, when 512 files are in the root the drive is "full". A FAT12 drive can store 224 files in the root folder before being "full". Both FAT32 and NTFS file systems have no limit on the number of files in the root folder, however there are file number limits, in other words you can have space left but have the maximum number of files that teh file system type can track. \n\nQuestions to ask to figure this out include:\nOverall hard drive size as labeled by manufacturer.\nPartitioning scheme.\nFile system type.\nTotal number of files on the drive.\n\nFrank

This is how to compress old files on your drive, it assumes you are using XP.\n\n1 - Right click on My Computer and select Manage\n\n2 - Click on Disk Management and find the C: drive\n\n3 - If it is NTFS, skip to step 11\n\n4 - If it is Fat32, do the following:\n\n5 - click start, run, type cmd\n\n6 - in the command prompt type convert C: /fs:ntfs\n\n7 - enter the volume label, this the name of the drive in bold letters in disk management\n\n8 - when it asks to dismount enter N\n\n9 - when it asks to perform it on next reboot enter Y, reboot it will run a disk check and convert the drive.  At this point it may error out if you do not have enough free space.  If that happens you will need to delete some stuff or burn it to a cd an put it back later.\n\n10 - Now your drive it ntfs, and we can compress it\n\n11 - open my computer, right click on C: and select properties\n\n12 - on the general tab at the bottom is a checkbox to compress the drive, check it and hit apply\n\n13 - choose the option to apply to subfolders (should be default) - the process will take some time to complete.\n\n14 - let it compress the drive and reboot.  This should save you a gig or more.  You can possibly save about 25% of the amount of data you have, but it depends greatly on what type of data it is.

Try using the FORMAT command. The Syntax may vary depending on your version of Windows.\n\nIt should be: FORMAT X: /FS:FAT\n\nWhere X: is the drive letter assigned to your card.

if you have XP cd then boot with that and it will give you the option to delete the ntsf file system on it and convert it to fat32 make sure you chose your new hardrive and not the one with all your data on it other wise it will be all lost other ways you can do it is by using a 98 boot disk then type fdisk at the command prompt and then go and delete the none dos partitions on it the place the fat32 partition onto it hope that can hel just search in google to find how to use fdisk

Nope.  FAT32 can be made into NTFS (on Windows XP) but NTFS cannot be reverted back to FAT32.

Your best bet is to follow the instructions in the manual. If you don't have them, just go to the manufacturers websites and you should be able to download them from there.\n\nalso check these links out, they might help (not trying to be funny, happens to all of us newbies):\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Booting\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partition_%28computing%29\n\ngood place for more info: \nhttp://computer.howstuffworks.com/

Dear Friend,\nYou first need to formate the entire disk.\nThen Boot your Computer using windows CD.\nThen there is a Software Segate Disk Manager. Run it. Follow the instructions. \nThere Comes a software with the Windows OS CD F-Disk.\nIt will also do but will take time.

What are you trying to put on in its place? If it is a Windows operating system just delete the partition and recreate it as an NTFS one during the Windows installation.

Plug the drive in, right click My computer and choose manage, detect the drive, and format it NTFS or FAT32

Forget about books...learn about partition types from online search (know about FAT/FAT32/NTFS):\nhttp://msdn.microsoft.com/archive/default.asp?url=/archive/en-us/win9x/fat32ovr_0j03.asp\nhttp://www.ata-atapi.com/hiwtab.htm\n\nthen install Windows several times w/ & w/o removing previous Windows...from all the messages you see, you will learn\n\nLearning from books is never as good as hands on...\n\nPS: Windows Server Installation is as normal as any other Windows OS installation...the only difference is the License setting at the start, and this could be altered from under Windows...\n\nWhat you want is the installation of different Services for the Server, its management and deploying...\n\nFor this, get some PDFs/books and apply as you go on...just reading is useless...
