NTFS is more rebust than FAT and recovers better from crashes. If you have a screwed up FAT32 partition you'd be best off using a Windows disk repair tool to try to fix it.
I did try using a repair tool but that did not work, so i presume it was a virus (just guessing) and used the alternative longer method, but now we are slowly trying to reduce the dependence on M$. btw, does ntfs patch provide support to all distros ?
See the linux-ntfs website (http://linux-ntfs.sourceforge.net/) for details. There *should* be a way of getting the ntfs module working in all distros, since all it is is a kernel module.
