Can you Partition your OS using NTFS for the C: directory and Fat32 as your other partitions for misc usage? If so can it be done using the dynamic disk setup?

their is no need using dynamic disk setup.
during installation of your os,just specify the size of the disk you want to be ntfs and format the partition with ntfs file system.
after the installation,you can format the remaining unallocated space with fat32 file system from disk management in administrative tools in control panel.
