Does Windows 2000 have 4GB file limit?

I'm trying to put Digital video on my win2k machine and it won't let me write files to the drive that are greater than 4GB. That's only about 20 minutes of video in AVI format. I need to put an hour on there so I can compress it to MPEG-4 or ASF. Does is matter if you have NTSF or FAT32 format? I'm using Studio DV going through a firewire card. Does anybody suggest any software for compression of digital video?
Thanks,
Todd
 
Win98 and 95 can both use either "FAT" or "FAT32". The former has a max file size of 2 GB, while the latter has a max filesize of 4 GB.

Windows NT and 2000 add the option of the NTFS file system, which has almost unlimited file sizes, measured in terabytes. I don't know the exact figure, but it's almost irrelevant as far as I'm concerned! (read: lots!) 🙂
