I get an exceeded backup file 4GB limit message when
attempting to use any mode of system backup. Is this
intential, and is there a work around. Anyone !

It's a FAT32 limitation. You can either switch to NTFS or use a backup
application that breaks the file into 4GB or smaller chunks (Ghost for one)
