This is very common problem when copying a file more than 4gb, i was confuse why it happened even thought my  Flash drive has a lot of memory space to copy the file because i have a 10gb free space and i only copy 5gb......and i found that this is because the file system of my flash drive  is set to FAT32 and according to the wiki  that Fat32 are capable of holding Only 4gb..

to fix this problem you need to convert the file system into a NTFS because all i know that NTFS are capable of holding any size of memory..so how to convert it into NTFS File System??Do i need to Reformat my Flash Disk in order to convert it into a NTFS?
