Yeah, it sounds like your drive is FAT32 - in order to change it, you need to reformat your hard drive, which means erasing everything.

no you don't have to do that. you can use a program like partition magic to change the formatting from FAT32 to NTFS without losing anything. All it does is change the file system so all your files aren't changed.

Huh. That's cool. I guess I did it the hard way last time.

I know it's a cliche, but you really do learn something new every day. :-)
