When you install Vista, I believe you can only format it with NTFS, which is what you want anyway.

NTFS in more reliable and make your system more crash proof and can handle big size files.

EDIT:make sure to choose "yes" like in pic below:

Is there such an option (Fat32) when installing Vista. :confused:

I don't think so.
