I am trying to image my 250 GB C: drive to my external 500GB D: drive. The drive is empty and formatted with FAT32. However DriveImage works for about 10-15 mins then reports not enough free space. What is wrong?

fat 32 has limits on the size of individual files that is can save. (Video recorders though looking like ordinary drive are often formatted in a different format to cope with the huge size of files.
You may need to use a different format on the external hard disk
