You do realize that FAT32 has a file size limit of 4GB, don't you?

Sorry you have lost me there,I'm just going by Everest Home where it has "Partitions C my hard drive ? Fat32

Edit>> are you saying that by setting the virtual disk to 20GB it's too big and should only be set too 4GB if so how do I go back and change this.

Thanks

Thanks for that would you believe I had just googled for that information.Now al I need to know is how do I go about redoing this V/box--Win instalation? can I just start again??

Make a backup of anything important.
In the host open a command prompt.
start-> run -> cmd

in that run
convert c: /fs:ntfs
wait a long time
reboot
