Hi all

I have been checking this site for a while & thought it time I joined,
I have a problem with some of the DVDs I have burnt (burnt ok) when I want to move a file from a DVD disc to the hard drive if the file is over 1 GB or so it wont copy it to the HDD?

I was running XP pro but have gone back to 98SE to sort the problem but it seems just the same

Any help greatfully recieved

Regards

If your HardDrive is Fat32 it will not support files bigger then one gig, you need to convert the HD to NTFS. If you are on win XP you can do it without reinstalling everything, it will convert the drive with your programs and OS still on the drive and will keep it all intact too


peace out!.......

not really true; max. file size for FAT32 is 2GB;
