I tried searching the forums but it gives me an error that the "words in my search are all 4 characters or shorter" so if this has been discussed/fixed I apologize.

I ran into a 4GB SD issue last night when my card came in. The reader I have formatted it fine at 3.87GB/FAT32 but when I copy files I get "Path is too deep".

A scan of Google finds all sorts of suggestions to change my IDE cable but nothing for USB cards. Most people that have posted this issue have gone unfixed also.

* I tried copying one row of files at a time.
* I tried copying one FILE at a time(really taxes the patience).
* I tried DOSBox copying *.*(it hangs when WinXP would have errored).
* I tried Safe Mode.

Anyone here run into this? How'd you fix or get around it?

Err... lower the amount of characters in each folder.

FAT32: Max path length is 260 & max file name length is 255
