How can i format 160 GB hardrive with fat 32 - Gigabyte G-MAX MA6CU (GB-GMAXMA6CU) PC Desktop

chek if formating is in fat filesystem, fat 32 has a size limit for single files of 4 GB fat 16 limits it to 2 GB so if you are trying to put a dvd-rip of 4.5 GB there is your problem, anyways right click on the drive in my computer, click-properties, under general you will see what file system it is, to change you will need to format the drive, and be careful because formating deletes everything off targeted drive - to format right click on the drive and select format..., choose ntfs file system and quick format if you want (speeds up the process), (be sure you saved data on hdd beforehand) and hit format. if the issue is not file system related i rly don't know what else could it be

Might be different format structures (eg FAT, FAT32, NTFS). FAT is most universal within windows and devices.

card will work and format to Fat 32 - that is the normal setting for those memory cards.

you might need some third party software to change it from ntfs to fat 32

hi,
Sanyo DP32648 doesn't have any USB port to which you can connect an USB device. One more thing in most of the TV's the USB port is used for the firmware updates and servicing purpose. If your tv has USB compatibility then try to use USB device less than 4 gb and should formated in FAT file system.
OK

Click on workstation
Right click the removable disk (f, g, h and i) where your usb key
Click on format
A window will open and you find more fields where you can change the content
In the field: file system FAT noted there and I never changed that is why I could not format my key
So I put "FAT 32 (FAT 32 was pre-registered in the scroll area) and then I could click" Start "to format the key and it worked

Good luck

If you really must have fat 32 (maybe for MAC use ?) then windows itself does not support doing a fat format on large drives.

However there is a fix Yup thats why they call it FIXYA
