At the c:>, do an fdisk. do "4. view disk partitions" or somesthing to that
effect, and
you will see FAT32 or FAT16 or other. ESC out. I found that FIPS works great, but
have not done any of my ten hard drives in FAT32, They all came new to me, and I
did
FDisk and Format the first time. My smallest drive to date is 1.2GB. All qualify
to be
FAT32. None are. Do not know the URL for the FAT32 stuff. but have seen mention
of FAT32 in connection with reading (running?) Win95 programs.
