It does work under Vista, but you have to run the CMD under administrator privilages (right click and pick run as administrator).
However, I found a much better tool called HP USB Format tool. Vista only allows you to format exFAT and NTFS. This tool works with vista and allows you to format (full or quick format) with FAT32 larger than 32gb.
I have a LATICE 1TB External drive and this gives me 951gb of reported space on the TM6900.
I can't remember if this forum allows external links, but just Google HP USB format tool and you'll soon find it. It is free.
