Chris,

You might want to invest in a piece of software like Norton Partition Magic.
I know that one worked for me.

Subject: [ddots-l] Can't Reformat with Larger Cluster Size


Hi folks.

On my older XP system, I can't seem to reformat my audio-only drive
(250GB in size) with a larger cluster size.  When I run the format
utility from the context menu, it only displays available sizes up
to 4KB.

How can I do this? Do I need to resort to the old command line format?

thanks
Chris
