Large File

[-]

I've created a file that's almost 5GB which resides on a non-OS partition on
the same drive as the OS.

I'm having a problem copying the file onto any other partition or physical
drive because I'm getting a message to the effect that there's not enough
room at the destination, which is wrong, because there's plenty of room. The
partition its on is a NTFS 12GB (11GB free). The destination is an empty
FAT32 10GB. The OS partition is 6GB free. I have 512MB RAM. What's the
problem? Is it that I'm copying an NTFS file to a FAT32 one? Or what? I'm
stumped.

Oops - I meant just over 7GB free!

Issue resolved - I've just found out that windows supports individual file
sizes as follows:

FAT: 2.1 Gb, FAT32: 4.2 Gb, NTFS: unlimited
