Formatting 128GB USB to FAT32

[GM99]

Anyone got any suggestions for formatting a 128GB (or anything above 32GB) to FAT32.
I have the SanDisk Ultra Fit 128GB USB 3.1 Flash Drive and have tried Ridgecrop etc without any luck. Looks to be correctly formatted on the computer but get an ‘incorrectly formatted’ error message in the car.

I've used EaseUS® Partition Master - Best partition manager software for Windows PC and Server users.

256gb partition. So far running smooth

Someone on here helpfully recommended I use this:

Ridgecrop Consultants Ltd

to format my drive. The drive was too large for FAT32 to be available through windows by default. If that's where you're having trouble I found it sorted it very quickly and easily.

Ironically, given that FAT & FAT32 are Microsoft inventions, I can format large drives as FAT32 on my iMac without any problem! As far as MS is concerned, NTFS rules

I have used this on a Windows PC:

Then don’t forget to add a folder TeslaCam.

This.. I didn’t even think of using windows for this, why an MS standard is a PITA for windows and trivial on Mac is just another mystery of life.

Thanks for all the assistance. All working and recording now . Next challenge is to check if you can reduce the sensitivity. Getting plenty of false alarms as people are walking past. Gives them a shock when the lights flash and recording starts .
