FAT12 512MB (don't bother using it on hard disks, use FAT16 instead) FAT16 2GB FAT32 everything else; Windows ME is limited to 137GB partition sizes. There's no 32GB limitation unless your MB BIOS has one set for harddisk sizes (which has nothing to do with partition types/sizes) Rick Why do you want to ?

It was just a finger problem. I can also add many unnecessary info. For example you can use a 4GB fat16 partition in NT OSes etc. There's no 32GB limitation unless your MB BIOS has one set for harddisk sizes (which has nothing to do with partition types/sizes) One can find , for example for W95 : http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=246818 MP Rick Why do you want to ?
