Hello all, I have a 8GB flash drive working all well apart from I'm not able to write any single file of over 4GB in size on it. I think it is because of FAT 32 formation of my flash drive. I'm using windows XP SP3 NTFS format and unable to convert flash drive's formation to NTFS from FAT 32. What can I do to overcome this bottleneck of file size of under 4GB.
 
why not copy the files to local disk first, then reformat as NTFS then copy back to the flash?
 
From command prompt

CONVERT x: /FS:NTFS /X

where x: is ur usb drive drive letter
