@Tom i kept getting the fat resize error when i used windows 10 to try to make a new raspberry pi raspbian installation on an 8 gig generic noobs SD card which came with the raspberry pi. I can confirm that windows 10 does something that causes it somehow. When other users here on the topic in this forum said a person with an installation of windows xp can install noobs with windows xp successfully and error free it got me thinking . To solve this problem i simply used ubuntu linux and it's gparted partition and format application to make 1 big partition and format it as a fat32 filesystem. Then i mounted the SD card reader / writer device partition (on mine it was /dev/sde1) and i made a dedicated directory to mount it to to send the copied files to that mounted directory and then i was done! It worked the very first time! A person might be able to do this on a live version of an ubuntu distribution and i think most distributions of linux can do this more or less easily. Anyone having the fat resize error i encourage using this method described in this post.
