Why can I only format in NTFS?

I just got a new 200gb HD... my mobo does support it and Im running winxp.

I have 2 primary partitions and an extended parition with 3 paritions on it. My problem is that I want to format the partitions in fat32, but when I go to format the partition, I can only do so in NTFS. Any ideas at all?
 
How large are your partitions? Windows XP has a limit of 32GB FAT32 partitions IIRC, so you need to use NTFS if you want parttion sizes over 32GB.
