okey dokey, so what do I do then? can I reformat the external without losing everything on the backup? i still have the 160 GB HDD, if I need that

I would do as you said, back up your lap top. What is possible, but I don't know if it would work, is to divide part of your external into fat 32 and then maybe move the data over to there somehow? I don't know if that would erase your data or not though.

well, right now I'm copying the backup from the external hard drive to my laptop. About 20 minutes left, thanks to the power of USB 3.0. Then I will try to reformat the external. But I'm not sure how to reformat it.
