Format within program #23

I often find myself having a corrupt drive for some reason, maybe other 
homebrew not unmounting or closing files properly I don't know.  The point is 
sometimes the dumps are bad, files missing, etc.

In my case the only thing I use the usb drive for is to dump games, and I have 
to format it to FAT32 using my gf's Mac because I have Windows 7 and only exFAT.

It would be awesome if you could ask the user if he wants to format the usb 
drive (if using usb) before dumping, so if the partition was corrupt, a 
formatting would ensure it's clean.  Maybe add NTFS fomatting also for folks 
using that.

This might be offtopic. But if you are using Windows 7 Professional or 
Ultimate, have you tried running Windows XP Mode and format it through there? 
Or maybe possible running Linux(Ubuntu) on VirtualBox and mount the drive to 
that?
