Try using Partition magic.  It will allow you to convert from FAT32 to FAT
16.  I would convert one partition to FAT16, Install NT and then use the
sysinternals utilities.  Or if I had the time, I would use Partition magic
and convert all the FAT32 to FAT16 and then to NTFS for better reliability.

 Alas, it is not free, but $50 bucks or so at my local Staples or Office
Max.

Standard disclaimers still apply.
