NTFS to FAT32 conversion

[Oohah]

Hello!

I was wondering if there was any way to convert an NTFS external drive back to FAT32 without actually reformatting the drive and losing all the data?

My hard drive was originally formatted to FAT32 but I had to convert it to NTFS so I could transfer a large file onto it. I then realised that the PS3 is not compatible with NTFS drives...

Please help!

Thanks in advance!

Sorry, it's not going to work.

There is no NTFS --> FAT32 tool I know of.

Though if you have Vista, you can use drive manegment to shrink the volume to the min size (with data), then create a FAT32 volume, copy stuff onto it, then make the FAT32 fill the entire physical drive.
