  This is not true.

  The limit for that file system is 1 byte shy of 4GB for the FAT 32
file system. The OS may still be at 2GB (I wouldn't doubt it), but
the file system is not.

  He could "convert" his partition to the new file system (NTFS).

  Then, it would save correctly.

  As far as "the CDs" go, there is a single CD selection as well.
Albeit a quite concatenated version.
