Hey all,

I have installed windows 2000 on my retropc. I've connected the pc to a subnet with no internetaccess, so I can use webdav to transfer files between my nas and the pc to install games and stuff 😀.

The problem is that it doesn't handle larger filesizes. I've read only that is possible to edit the registry to enable larger filesizes, but I can't find the right registry key in Windows 2000. Does anyone know how to edit?

Thanks in advance!

Win2000 handles large files just fine on NTFS. You may have installed on a FAT partition, in which case you'd need to convert it to NTFS or use a different partition.

thanks for you reply!

It is in fact an NTFS partition. I tried a third party client and then in works just fine. I understood there is a problem with Windows handling large files via WebDAV.
