Hard Drive fat 32 question

Hi all

I am trying to download a large file (over 4 gig) however its stopped with an error of no space left on device. i have a 40 gig hard drive so i know i have the space. after research it seems its because my hard drive is fat32 and it needs converting to ntsc or something??

My questions are, will i be able to just say convert 10 gig of my hard drive to this as i dont want to lose all the stuff on my comp at the moment. Is it easy to do? and if so how do i go about it? and lastly is it dangerous, as i dont want to damage my hard drive.

Any help would be appreciated.

Many Thanks

Chris
