If you read the article you'd see he installed the Windows XP Home Edition. XP Home does not support NTFS. NTFS support is only included in Windows XP Professional. His only choice was to use fat32.

    You don't know what you are talking about.

    Windows XP Home Edition supports the NTFS file system. This is being written from a Windows XP Home Edition machine running the NTFS file system, as a matter of fact.

    You're mistaken, bucktaylor. Windows XP Home Edition does support NTFS. The only reason to use FAT32 is if you plan to dual-boot with an OS that cannot read NTFS5.
