    You're gonna have to extract it onto an NTFS partitioned HDD since FAT32 can't handle file sover 4gb but NTFS can. You could just convert your FAT32 to NTFS: it'd be better to do it on the XP anyway in case it has a NTFS HDD.

    To convert FAT32 to NTFS this is what you do-

    Standard Windows utility that is called CONVERT serves this purpose

    Just go to the Command Prompt and execute the command:

    C:\> CONVERT C: /fs:ntfs

    Where C: is a name of the drive you want to convert.

    After machine re-boot conversion process will start and you'll have your FAT32 converted to NTFS without of data loss.
