Check out <http://www.winternals.com/products/fat32.shtml>.

FAT32 is a FAT32 filesystem driver for Windows NT 4.0. It is designed for
use in dual–boot Windows NT systems that share drives with an existing
Windows 95 OSR2 (OEM Service Release 2) or Windows 98 installation.

FAT32 allows NT to access FAT32 partitions just as it does regular FAT
and NTFS volumes. Once installed, FAT32 drives on your system will be
fully accessible as native Windows NT volumes. Performance of FAT32
volumes is comparable to your existing FAT volumes.

FAT32 for Windows NT is licensed by seat. One license permits you to
install and run the software on exactly one machine. Price - $39

Important: Windows NT 4.0 does not support booting from a FAT32 drive,
and this driver does not add this support. Therefore, DO NOT convert
your first partition, or your NT boot partition (the one containing
\winnt), to FAT32 if it is currently FAT16 or NTFS. Doing so may render
your system unbootable.

Bill
