My girlfriend's company gave her an IBM Thinkpad T30. It has Windows XP installed on FAT 32. I thought FAT 32 was limited to 32 GB, but the hard drive says 36 GB capacity with 28GB unused.
Are these numbers reliable? Is FAT32 okay on XP?
UPDATE-
She talked to the IT people and they said that the system was formatted with FAT32 from the factory. They just installed Windows XP. They also mentioned something about a Novell login to get to the company network, and since there were units within the company still running Windows 98, that they use FAT32 until they can get the whole company modernized.
Seems kinda backwards to me, but that's how they run their company. Thanks to all who commented.
