Default Windows Fat32 Formatting Software
I was wondering, since windows can't format fat32 if its larger then 32gb, where I can find some software that will indeed format to fat32 on usb HD's that are greater then 32gb. I tried CompuApps SwissKnife, but it has issues apparently.

Why do you need it to be FAT32?

Windows can format the drive if it is larger than 32gb, but anything after is just slower and inefficient.
