    Default how come 8 wont fit onto 11?

    I've got a 32gb memstick/flashdrive with 11.6gb free!

    I'm trying to move a concert video to that memstick that is 7.62gb to the drive and I'm getting and error message the video is too big!

    I have screen shots but i guess attachments are disabled?

    I defragged the memstick and still no luck!

    any suggestions?

    You get that message if the stick is formatted in Fat32.
    Format it in NTFS and all will be well.
    Fat 32 has a size limit on files. They must be under 4GB
