Make sure you haven't run out of space on your hard drive. If that's
not the case, see if the program sets aside temporary space. It could
that it defaults at, say, 30,000 KB and then doesn't make the room to
handle your file. You should be able to adjust that number, however.
Check your software manual. Finallym, you may not have enough RAM to
handle that large a file. You might need to increase your RAM a bit.
