Natively Windows XP doesn’t support partitions greater than 32GB of the size for FAT32 partitions. The age we live in, it is not quite a surprise that PC’s have hard disk sizes of 120GB and more!

So here is the solution for creating a FAT32 partition in Windows XP which is greater than 32GB.

Thanks to Tom@RidgeCrop who created a tool for the community to do this;

So how to you proceed doing this;

1. Install XP on a partition of your choice.

2. Go to DiskManagement snap-in, and create a Primary or Extended partition of the size you want (but do not format it there).

3. Then download the tool at link [ Tom@RidgeCrop ], open command prompt and just run the tool as ‘fat32format <driveletter>;

Voila, there you go!
