Recently, I have got a problem with my USB device (Kingston Data traveller 2GB). It is originally in FAT file system. But my system recognizes it to be a RAW file system. I checked the device with other systems and its working fine. I cornered the problem to be in my Windows which can recognize NTFS file system but not FAT file system. All other FAT FS drives shows as RAW format and no problem with NTFS. I don't want to format my drive to NTFS, which I tried it successively. I have my phone, MP3 player, all other USB flash memory in FAT file system which would work in FAT FS only not in NTFS. I'd like to know if there are any ways to change things through REGISTRY so that windows recognizes FAT file system as FAT and not RAW
