Window only usually read NTFS format for hard drive. The only way to get it to FAT32 (Which Format that Linux,PS3, USB storage device use) is to make your HD into a 32GB storage space only.

PS3 use special kind of FAT32 format which you cannot easily go and just drag ps3 file out. You need special kind of software to do able to read PS3 files i believe.

And no, there is no way to restore the file you accidentally overwrite. Is like computer file, once you overwrite something you cannot reverse it. Unless the program itself save each file individually automaticlly.

Only 2 way to get back your from your overwrited saved game.. Either play it from start all over again or you can look for a saved file over the web to see if anyone saved in the same spot as you
