I recently tried to make an Image of a DVD with CloneDVD and it gave me an error saying the file was over 4 GB and couldn't be written ?

Don't use a FAT32 partition. You have to use NTFS

Sounds like your hard drive is FAT32 format. NTFS will accept anysize file. There is a cammand you can type in the Command prompt window that will convert you from FAT32 to NTFS.

Convert FAT to NTFS
Q: Is it possible to convert a FAT32 Hard Drive to NTFS without losing all data on the drive? I like to change from FAT32 to NTFS, my operating system is Windows XP PRO, how can I do that? Without the lost of my programs?
A: Standard Windows utility that is called CONVERT serves this purpose

Just go to the Command Prompt and execute the command:

C:\> CONVERT C: /fs:ntfs

Where C: is a name of the drive you want to convert.

After machine re-boot conversion process will start and you'll have your FAT32 converted to NTFS without of data loss.
