I've not had a problem with 4G files on Win2K & splitstream... but
it's hard to tell if it's tyconvert, or WinME - WinME is much buggier
than even Win98SE for what I've seen...

You're best bet if you're going to Win2K anyway (wise choice, my
friend ;-) save the .ty file & try re-splitting after your upgrade.
If it splits fine, you know it was WinME. If it still dies, I would
doubt that it's an issue with the filesize, else why would it die
only 12 minutes into the split? In that case, I'd try splitstream on
that .ty file...

HTH,
