Solved it, to format a drive to exFAT you need a MS update installed (955704) on your system to format or even see a exFAT drive.

The link below is for XP and Windows Server 2003 varients.

you must be running XP then ,the ability to read exFAT file system was introduced in vista i believe as it is a relatively new system designed as a successor to FAT systems
