NTFS refers to the way that your hard drive is formatted. There are generally two types of formats that you will deal with: NTFS or FAT32.

The main drawback with FAT32 is that it will not support files larger than 4GB. Check to see what format your hard disk drive is. If it's FAT32, that may be why you're getting that error message.

Yes, NTSF is the way to go.
I think there is a way to convert your drive over
without loosing all your information.
Either that or install a small hard drive (20-30GB)
and format it to NTSF and use the slave drive when
doing games or movies.
here is a link on converting it
http://www.ntfs.com/quest3.htm
also Norton Partition Magic will do it if you want to buy
or obtain that program.
