At the point your hard drive was last partitioned and formatted large drive support was enabled and the FAT was written as 32 bit.
Once that was done you will get the FAT32 report any time FAT parameters are requested.
If you have a 4gb drive you have FAT32. [sig]<p>Ed Fair<br><a href=mailto: efair@atlnet.com> efair@atlnet.com</a><br><a href= > </a><br>Any advice I give is my best judgement based on my interpretation of the facts you supply. <br>
