This article will explain the concept behind clusters, and will go in dept on limitations of FAT12, FAT16 and FAT32 and as well as how FAT wastes space when lot of small files are stored.

The problem is probably related to drivers or something. Did you try reinstalling them?
You might want to register and start a seperate thread on this problem though and hopefully we can help.

FAT32 will work fine in 2k/xp, it's just that NTFS is better, but if you have a reason to use FAT32 such as using linux, it will work just as fine.
