Press “Y” and give your SD-card an interesting name.Īfter a few seconds the H-drive will show up in Windows Explorer and you will now be able to use it.
FORMAT DISK WINDOWS 10 DISKPART HOW TO
Step 4 How to find your Windows 10 license key.
FORMAT DISK WINDOWS 10 DISKPART INSTALL
Step 3 Choose the Windows 10 clean install option. Step 2 Set your computer to boot from DVD or USB. Run the format command from the Windows Command line format H: /FS:FAT /Q And replace H with you SD-card drive letter. Save your settings, reboot your computer and you should now be able to install Windows 10. It should show a Primary partition of 4000 MB.Ĭlose the diskpart window by typing exit and go back to your Windows Command prompt screen. Ignore that for now, if you want to can check your new partition by running the list part command again.
When you run the command almost immediate a Windows File Explorer Window will open as the new partition is noticed by Windows and it wants to format it. This 4000 is rather important, as FAT16 only supports up to 4GB. For each partition you need to first select the partition using the select part and then remove the partition using delete part.Īnd finally we create the new partition by running the create command create part primary size=4000. And you might just see 1 partition on your SD-card, thats fine. Run the command list part.īoth partition needs to be removed and do make sure you are on the correct Disk, as removed does mean removed. Select the correct Disk by running the select disk command.Ĭheck which partitions are present on the SD-card, as we will need to remove those creating a new FAT16 partition. In my case Disk 6 is an 8GB micro SD-card. This will give an overview of al disks (HDD, SSD, SD-cards, etc) in your system. And in the Diskpart window run the list disk command. If you have not yet put you SD-card in your PC, do it now. Diskpart.exe will open in his own screen. Start diskpart, you will get a warning, accept yes, as you do want to make changes to your SD-card. Type cmd in the search field a, the Command Prompt App will be your best match, press enter and you are ready. On your Windows machine open a command prompt by select the search option next to Windows Start menu on the bottom left of your screen. And that’s a challenge as on Windows 10 the FAT16 option is no longer available in the GUI when you put in a “large” micro-SD card, lets say 8GB or more which is already formatted with FAT32 or NTFS.īut no worry, we can use diskpart to prepare and format the SD-card with FAT16. My current 3D printer is only able to handle FAT16 formatted micro-SD cards.
