NTFS v3.0 includes several new features over its predecessors: sparse file support, disk usage quotas, reparse points, distributed link tracking, and file-level encryption, also known as the Encrypting File System (EFS).
Windows XP natively supports FAT12, FAT16, FAT32, and NTFS. Other file systems, such as HPFS, JFS, ext2/3, and ReiserFS can be supported through an IFS (Installable File System).

NTFS (New Technology File System) is not natively compatible with DOS, as DOS primarily uses FAT (File Allocation Table) file systems, such as FAT16 or FAT32. While some third-party tools may allow read access to NTFS drives from DOS, full compatibility and support for NTFS features are lacking. Consequently, users typically need to rely on modern operating systems for NTFS functionality.
You can convert the entire filesystem to NTFS by running in a shell window ntfs C: or ntfs C:\
FAT32 can be used by more operating systems then NTFS. In order to use NTFS the computer must be formatted with the NTFS file system. NTFS systems are able to read both NTFS and FAT32. FAT32 systems cannot read NTFS.
