Windows XP supports both FAT32 and NTFS. However NTFS is native to the NT structure, default for XP, and should always be used.

Windows XP support three file systems: FAT, FAT32, and NTFS. Each one has a place for Windows XP rollouts, but the best overall choice is to use NTFS. NTFS is not recommended for hard drives under 512 MB or removable media that will be used on more than one computer. This assumes that you are requesting information for hard drives, and not optical media. Refer to www.microsoft.com/technet for more information on Windows XP.
