Was wondering what program to use to compress this file to be able to copy over to a FAT32 HDD
example is Medal of Honor
The instal.pkg file is over 6GB used winrar to compress into 700mb pieces copied these over 3 at a time and extracted but still wouldnt extract as its over a 4GB
Any help is appreciated and if its in the wrong section, sorry  (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

This is what I do to play backups:

Install "Gaia Manager" or "open manager" on your PS3 to manage your backups - It's a .PKG file , google it

Next get a PC program called  "OpenSplit v1.0" to split 4+GB files via PC for Gaia Manager on the PS3.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

* What is OpenSplit? *

This little tool lets you split the BIG files (bigger than 4GB) in your games on your PC, so that you can use them with Gaia Manager and Open Manager for the ps3.

* How do I use it? *

- Press "Split BIG files to .666xx" in order to select a folder with your games. OpenSplit then will search the folder and all its subfolders for BIG files and split them according to Open Manager 1.0. All game folders that contained BIG files will be renamed accordingly. (example -> "BCESXXX" to "_BCESXXX")

- Press "Merge .666xx files to BIG" in order to select a folder with your games. OpenSplit then will search the folder and all its subfolders for .666xx files and merge them to BIG files. All game folders that contained .666xx files will be renamed accordingly. (example -> "_BCESXXX" to "BCESXXX")

- Check the checkbox "Don't delete splitted BIG / merged .666xx files" if you want to keep both BIG and .666xx files.

You can choose your whole GAMEZ directory, then all games will be processed.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

With this method you can copy your games to your usb device and then properly transfer them over to your ps3's internal hard drive.
