    Hi folks,

    I'm using Wiindows Vista and I need to format a 1T external hdd to FAT 32.
    The only options that drop down are NTFS of exFAT.

    Help required please.

    Vista and Windows 7 will not allow you to format a drive with a capacity larger than 32gb with FAT32.
    Download the HP utility to format the drive.
