Default 2GB file size limitation

Exactly. But my Win98 says the file size is a negative number. I've not seen
that before.

Using 98SE in this case. Tried using VisualStudio version 5.0 (old) to
convert raw video to avi. Best it could do was 2GB. Tried in ME, 4GB was
possible. Same identical application. Both 98SE (all updates) and ME (no
updates) were/are on FAT32 partitions.
For this, and a number of other reasons, switched to ME for this specific
application and subsequent versions.
Funny, though, 98SE could read the larger than 2GB to 4GB files. Just
couldn't write them with this application.

Hi, as I am sure you guys know, W98 has problems with file sizes over 2GB.
Has there ever been a workaround or other fix?
