| 1390093 | 2014-12-25 00:44:00 | Well I finally got fed up with this machine and formatted the Drive and reinstalled XP. I then installed supposedly the correct drivers for the model supplied by ASUS. Some installed and some didn’t so I tried pointing to the original drivers that I had backed up. Fixed a couple of problems but still had “driver not installed” messages. So, I hunted through my assortment of disks and found a pack of two “ASUS Recovery Disks”, didn’t say for what models, so I thought nothing to lose, I’d try them. Well, they fixed some things but not all, but the crunch is I now have a 100GB drive that is formatted in FAT32. :confused: I thought 32GB was the limit for FAT32 but no it is definitely reporting that there is only the one drive and 6.27GB is used and 86.8GB available and it’s FAT32. So what is going on here, why is a drive that was NTFS now reporting it is FAT32 and how do I get 86.2GB of spare space all on one partition when it’s FAT32? The whole thing is becoming quite a challenge. :groan: Re-installed XP ? Are you living in the last century ? What about 7 or 8.0 or 8.1 Ten will be here soon. |
