    Right cunts i just bought an external harddrive to watch movies etc on. Ive since found out it wont work on the ps3/tv until i format it to fat32 or some shit. Question is how the fuck do i do that? Every site ive found online doesnt want to work. Ive downloaded some program called swiss knife but it doesnt want to work when i ask it to format my drive it just comes up with an error.


    any help would be appreciated.

    Normally that won't let you format to fat32 if the hard drive is too big, or it will only format to ntfs and exfat
