Or use the 2GBFIX TSR:

2GBFIX works around this by patching the appropriate DOS calls so that
they never return more than 2GB of total or free space, which prevents
the program failing at the expense of the program not having a true
idea of the actual amount of disk space. For most practical purposes
this is not a problem.
