    I have several DVD recorders and now a new Samsung DVD player with USB ports. The Samsung manual states it will play .avi movies from a USB flash drive, providing it's formatted using FAT16/32. Unfortunately, I download DivX and XVid files onto computers running Windows XP, which formats the USB drive in NTFS. How does one format the flash drive in FAT16/32 using Windows XP, is it even possible ? Or do I need an older computer running Windows 98 or ME ?
