What is the file system on the external hard drive? (In Explorer,
right-click the disk and select Properties. The file system is shown
on the first tab of the Properties dialog.)
For files larger than 4 GB, you need NTFS. The message "disk full"
isn`t very helpful, if I`m correct in suspecting you`ve got FAT32.
