Error 0x80070299

[Chris]

Using Vista Home Premium 32bit it get

"Error 0x80070299, The requested operation caould not be complete due to a
file system limitation"

I'm trying to download a disk image of 6.2gig, and from what I understand,
Vista has a limit on file sizes.

I've got just over half the file (torrent download) and Vista won't let me
download anymore, can this be worked around or disabled?

Thanks

I'm afraid that it is just another systom of the general disk I/O problems
that everyone is experiencing.

Personally I find the silence of Microsoft very omnious. Normally they would
be very quick to minimalize the problem, this one they are obviously trying
to hide ...

Luckily Vista is practically never used in business environments, but of
course that is not an excuse to let such a dangerous bug float around,
whitout even issuing a warning.

One off these days Microsoft is going to themselves sued for this ...
