What sort of problem are you having? Are you getting any error messages?
I sometimes use the old command line for copy jobs giving me trouble. Especially for really large files.
Open up your command prompt. Enter the command..
xcopy E:\file location\* F:\file location\* /E /C
Substitute the drive letters and file locations for the ones that you are copying.

The problem states that the "File is to large to the destination" and the destination is FAT32

If yes, fat32 has a maximum filesize limit of 4gb or thereabouts
Check what File system they both have - I think the source is probably NTFS
