There's no such thing as Windows XP format or Windows Vista format. You should check however if your external hard drive uses an NTFS or FAT32 partition table. You can see that by right-clicking the drive (C, D, E, ..) and clicking properties. If it uses NTFS it will be no problem for Vista. If it's FAT32, then google for a way to convert it to NTFS. No big deal.
Why does ot say cant transfer to new volume when you plugg in your external harddrive?
Assuming you're talking about transferring files from a Mac to an external hard drive (since this is the Apple / Mac section), here is one possible scenario: If the external hard drive is NTFS formatted, then the Mac will only be able to read the contents of the drive, and will not be able to write to it. To remedy such a situation, back up all data from the external hard drive, launch Disk Utility on the Mac, select the hard drive, and format it as 'Windows / MS-DOS' (FAT 32) format (if you'd like to keep the external hard drive Windows compatible), or format it as 'Mac OS Extended' if you're only going to be using it on Macs.
