[vox-tech] Reformatting a FAT32 partition

While rebuilding my system, I created a partition that I meant to share
between Windows and Linux for the occasional document that *has* to be
in MS Word, or the occasional graphic that I just can't figure out how
to fix in GIMP. Originally, I accidentally formatted the partition as
FAT32, and got a message from my kernel as I was booting up that said,
"Warning -- FAT32 support is still alpha." Which I knew, of course.
So now, I'm back in Windows, trying to reformat that partition as FAT
instead of FAT32. Windows says it can't complete the format for some
reason.
Anyone have any ideas why, or how to fix this?
