So we await a reply from Pranav, hopefully (for us) reporting the size of the largest file as > 2Gb, and his partition as FAT
Also - Missed from your notes Win2K allows larger allocation units to be selected under FAT32, so the 32Gb limit does not apply Fun for those converting to XP ( Well I was less unhappy when I found that goody in a users system But conversion to NTFS sorted that, once I identified the problem.)

Volumes much larger than 2 terabytes (TB) are possible. Cannot be used on floppy disks. File size limited only by size of volume. FAT32 Volumes from 512 MB to 2 TB. In Windows XP, you can format a FAT32 volume up to 32 GB only. Does not support domains. Maximum file size is 4 GB. FAT Volumes from floppy disk size up to 4 gigabytes (GB). Does not support domains. Maximum file size is 2 GB Marc Sims Data Technician I Prince George's Community College >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] Monday, December 05, 2005 >>> Another possibility - What is the actual size of the largest file to be copied If more than 2Gb, it could be that if the destination partition is fat, then it may not allow files that large to be created on the partition JimB -- ---------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, mailto: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Is your picture included in the Official Win-Home List Members Profiles Page? http://www.besteffort.com/winhome/Profiles.html If not, write to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- ---------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, mailto: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Is your picture included in the Official Win-Home List Members Profiles Page? http://www.besteffort.com/winhome/Profiles.html If not, write to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
