Problem mit Dateien größer als 2GB
Frage
Vielen Dank für die Antworten auf meine Frage.
Die Angelegenheit wird meines Erachtens jedoch sachgerecht in
microsoft.public.win98.gen_discussion erklärt:

The file size limit for FAT32 is 4Gb less two bytes, but you may
find some programs, and even Windows functions, have problems with
files larger than 2Gb. The applications have to be written to use
the newer versions of the file handling routines in order to avoid
problems with files larger than 2Gb, and not all applications have
been rewritten.
For instance, you might find that your backup program can create
and use a file larger than 2Gb, but that your CD-writing program
can't write it to CD.

From the Windows 98 Resource Kit online book (which comes free with
every retail version of Window sold), Chapter 10 (Disks and File
Systems) specifies:
"The largest possible file for a FAT32 drive is 4 GB minus 2 bytes.
Win32-based applications can open files this large without special
handling. However, non-Win32-based applications must use Int 21h
Function 716Ch (FAT32) with the EXTENDED_SIZE (1000h) open flag."
There is no override or way to bypass this limit.
