CDs/DVDs don't use the ntfs file system.
What errors do you get trying to format?
Floppies don't format in NTFS either.
Nor do floopies for that matter.
:blink:
is it just fat?Quote:

and properties show RAW not FAT [ i believe you guys are saying and r right about] seen some talk about it happening to partioned hhd's of a certain size.
The stories I've read shows a big problem when this happens
