FAT32 is only available to drives up to 32GB.so if u r formatting for a drive dat has 320BG,its impossible.unless
1.u make it up into smaller 32 GB partition 2.using other programs such as partition magic..
hope this helps

Btw, since we all know how "secure" Windows is ....
Will the "Security" issue occur when we use bootcamp to install windows? (prone to virus la, blablabla)?
Still thinking if i should install Windoze in my MB, as i might not have access to my desktop for a while.. Can't live without my MMORPG

Virus or blablah go to your macbook (from windose), then it won't affect your mac partition. Only the windose partition affected. And if you want solve it, just boot to your mac and "search and delete" virus or what from windose partition. Or you can just delete that windose partition. Just remember to backup your important data Btw, NTFS can be write in mac by using MacFuse and NTFS-3g

macbook seems to be a nice deal just that lacking of dedicated GPU shuns me away  macbook pro is kinda heavy and out of my budget. This post has been edited by Guardian: Apr 1 2007, 01:09 PM
