I would guess, just a guess mind you, someone who doesn't give a fuck and just expects shit to work?

i think he was just typin in random shit lol

But, generally to enter in a command like that, u gotta click start, then run, then type in cmd into the dialog box. It'll open a dos window. This is where you type in commands.

If you want, you can type in HELP (Caps aren't needed, im just doin tht) it will then give u a list of other commands. Convert is on that list, and it says, "Converts FAT volumes to NTFS you cannot convert the current drive."

So, it appears the josh IS right. Give it a go.

Why is it defaulted to FAT32 in the first place?

Well (iirc), because FAT32 would work on any OS, where as NTFS is microsoft specific.

(Now, there are OS's (like Linux and Mac, i believe) that can read NTFS, but microsoft is still being a bitch and only reads NTFS and FAT(32)...)
