usb hard disc format
Hi, I have a 500GB external hard disc, I want to format to fat32 using the blade support process, but I'm stuck on number(6)"click on delete partition" this option is not there in disc management on my pc. I'm using vista. Thanks for your help.

Should be able to change it with PC--Computer-Removable Disc (or whatever)--Right Click--Format (change to Fat )
Using a 500 GB with NTFS works a treat on Vista

Why not format it with PC to FAT.

Re: usb hard disc format
no need to create partitions,i dont think you will get the option to format to fat 32 on such a large drive , if not this will do the job in 2 mins, ive used it a few times for ps3 etc
